Church Leadership Basics
He (Jesus) is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. (Col. 1:15-18)
God's Intent for the Church Forms Our Leadership Basics
As leaders, we help followers of Jesus function within the following basics of life in Him:
God's Purpose for the Church: Love God, Love People
God's Design for the Church: Body Life
God's Mission for the Church: Great Commission

Order the Steering the Church Leadership Guides to reflect more on your responsibility as a leader to not only lead by example in each of the above guiding principles but also to steer the Body toward God's purposes, design, mission, and character for the Church by grabbing hold of His power to head in that direction.
These leadership guides can be ordered separately for areas of greatest need or with all five bundled together, at a discounted cost, for a more comprehensive view of God's intent for the Church.
