This is a one-of-a-kind book. A combination of profound truths, presented in narrative and biblical theology, and with perceptive insight from a fathering heart, combine to bring an authoritative, message to the Body of Christ.
This is great teaching, and timely, coming from a seasoned, mature, Christian leader. In making clear the Word of our Lord Jesus and the words of His apostles, it calls for big changes in the visible structure of the Church and in the way we live out the expressed values of Christianity.
To embrace the biblical imperative of establishing city eldership would fly in the face of much vested interest in the Church. But bested interest does not stand in the judgment day. We must live rather, by the fear of the Lord.
