Caring for Elders

1 Timothy 5:16-17 | Building a Healthy Church | Trent Hunter Over the last few weeks we’ve looked at an important dimension of the church’s health: her care for her widows and, individually, her care for family. With this sermon we come to another important dimension of the church’s health: her care for her spiritual leaders, what the Bible refers to with three different terms: elders, or pastors, or overseers. From compensation to accusations, from the process for appointment to recognizing that even elders get indigestion, all of these go into ensuring a healthy eldership, and a healthy eldership is important for a healthy church.
