Understanding Biblical Leadership Roles & Functions

---

God has clearly established through His Word the roles and functions of church officers.  A church officer may be defined as, “…someone who has been publicly recognized as having the right and responsibility to perform certain functions for the benefit of the whole church” (Wayne Grudem 905).  Everyone in the church has gifts to exercise and function in, but they do not need the formal, public recognition in order for their gifts to function as the church officers do.  The New Testament pattern has shown us two kinds of officers that need to be formally and publicly recognized by the congregation: Elders & Deacons.
