Lead Well

February 25, 2024 • Andrew Cullen • 1 Timothy 3:1–7

A church cannot be healthy without healthy leaders. This is why God designed each church to be led by a team of spiritually qualified men. The qualities that Paul lists are not a litmus test for who can lead. Nor do they make an exhaustive list. They are examples of the kind of person who ought to be in a position of authority and responsibility. He does not draw lines of “do this” or “don’t do this.” He draws circles of principles that say “be the kind of person who...” is healthy.
