Our church is led by a group of elders, a wonderful group of godly men and women, chosen from among our members.
There are many metaphors of the church given to us in Scripture, and since it’s often described as a Body, we imagine the structure of the leadership of our community more as a living organism than an organization. As diverse parts of the Body, we have varying gifts and roles, interests and passions, but we are brought together in unity by a common purpose— to worship God— and a common experience as fellow participants in the big story of God’s Kingdom.
