Usually a male figure, dressed in an Armani suit and chauffeur driven. Standing at the helm of an established Wall Street corporation, this man has a keen sense of how to undercut his competition and make them enjoy the sensation. Often business leaders are masters at manipulation and political maneuvering. Turn 180 degrees and find the image of Biblical success. Odd to the world, but a successful church leader is a servant of all.
Servant leadership is the management pattern established in the New Testament church.
Jesus Christ is the head of the church. The church belongs to Him. The church is not a democracy. Indeed the church is and always has been a monarchy under the authority and rule of Jesus Christ. No place in Scripture is there any indication that He ever gave it to elders, preachers, deacons, or a church board.
