How can lay leaders serve the church in the work of serving: looking after the church building; managing budgets; caring for the physical needs of the church; ensuring safety in meetings; creating a comfortable place to meet?

Q&A

  • Where does music ministry fit into shepherding and serving?
  • What place does an elder's wife have in appointing an elder?
  • How do you raise up deacons who are real leaders who take responsibility?
  • Should there be an opportunity to review roles in the church?
  • Should the ministry of the word away from the pulpit be under the oversight of the elders?

This is the fifth talk of five from Trusted Hands: the post-conference event that followed the 2024 Leaders' Conference. It included five sessions with Brian Croft to help explore how to train and deploy volunteer leaders across the church.
