The Elders Handbook - A Practical Guide for Church Leaders

My husband is very pleased with this book. The previous owner's notes are clear enough to not detract from the book. The book itself is is good condition even with some minor warping.

The definitive work on Reformed / Presbyterian Eldership

Belying its 1981 publication date, this concise yet thorough volume is timeless in explaining the essentials of the Reformed / Presbyterian form of church government and the role of the Elder.Structuring the book around St. Paul's parting instructions in Ephesus (Acts 20:28-31), Berghoef and De Koster not only skillfully explain the work of the Elder, but share insights gained over many years to guide those involved in these tasks."The Elder's Handbook" is laid out and written in a well-organized but conversational style, making it both an easy read and a handy reference. Those involved or interested in the Eldership will find this a valuable addition to their library, or a much-appreciated gift for those contemplating or entering this office.
