Leadership Qualities

The values, and skills listed apply to every person who has an active role as a leader in the church. This includes pastors, teachers, and other workers in the church. Not all have an official title. Although the following list is not complete in every detail it demonstrates the attitudes, and skills we try to attain as leaders in the church.

  1. They have shown themselves approved over time through recognizable fruits, not being new converts.  1 Timothy 3:2-6,102 Timothy 2:151 Thessalonians 2:4Matthew 7:15-20Galatians 5:22.
  2. Respected by others outside the church, showing mercy, and forgiveness to all.
    1 Timothy 3:7Luke 6:27-39.
  3. Do all things in the church as servants to others out of humility. Not having selfish ambitions, but desiring to give more than to receive.
    Matthew 20:26-271 Peter 5:5James 3:13-16Philippians 2:3-8.
  4. Demonstrate gentleness, compassion, patience, kindness and humility. Doing things out of love for God, and others. Colossians 3: 12-141 Corinthians 16:14Ephesians 5:1-2.

  10. Ready to do what is necessary at any time when they have not had time to prepare.
