Are you curious about what it takes to lead in the church? In this episode, we dive into 1 Timothy 3, where the Apostle Paul lays out the essential qualifications for elders and deacons. Leadership is the backbone of any thriving church, and Paul doesn't leave us guessing—he provides a detailed checklist for choosing leaders who will help the church rise, not fall.

From being “above reproach” to managing one's household well, this episode breaks down the character, behavior, and spiritual maturity required for both elders and deacons. You'll also learn why some qualities are non-negotiable, how elders and deacons differ in their roles, and how every servant-leader plays a part in advancing the church's mission.

Whether you're a current leader, aspiring elder, or a church member seeking to understand leadership better, this episode will guide you through the biblical standards that build healthy, godly leadership. Join us as we uncover the blueprint for effective church leadership, where everything truly rises or falls on leadership.
