<p>The Apostle Paul instructed young Timothy, “If anyone sets his heart on being an overseer [elder], he desires a noble task” (1 Tim. 3:1). Anyone can have a righteous, well-balanced desire to be an elder, but many lack the knowledge and training. In this instructional workbook our teacher, Dr. David Ireland, provides twelve invaluable lessons deigned to equip believers on the role and function of New Testament elders. The workbook is designed with a twofold purpose: 1) Individuals can go though each lesson in order to learn ways of better serving their congregation; and, 2) A pastor can use this workbook as a curriculum to select, train, and prepare a group of people for ordination as an elder in their congregation. Irregardless of your goal, the lessons contained in this workbook will prove instrumental in developing quality leaders who will serve the needs of the local church.</p>
