What Kind of Leaders Does the Church Need?
“Shepherds” of God’s Flock
Peter – Apostle, Shepherd, Elder (1 Peter 5:1)
Jesus – the Great Shepherd of the Sheep (1 Peter 5:4, John 10:11-18)
Church Leaders are “Pastors”
Be shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, serving as overseers… 1 Peter 5:2
The Motivation of the Pastor (1 Peter 5:2-3)
NOT under compulsion BUT willingly
greedy for money eager to serve
lording it over the flock being an example to the flock
The Role of the Pastor (John 21:15-17)
Great Expectations!
Jesus’ Command – “Feed and Care for My Sheep.”
