God's design for church leadership, as revealed in Titus 1:5-9, outlines sixteen essential qualifications for church elders. These requirements include being blameless, faithful in marriage, and having believing children.

While these qualities are specifically required for church leaders, they represent godly characteristics that all Christians should pursue in their journey of sanctification and spiritual growth.
