Making Disciples, Making Leaders: A Manual for Developing Church Officers

By E. Von Clemens and Steven P. Eason

This book offers a model for selecting and training church officers that is grounded in spiritual discernment and development. The book begins with a biblical understanding of leadership, moves into consideration for how to train a Nominating Committee to select leaders according to the biblical vision, and then offers a step-by-step plan for a training event with three components. The training plan is designed to build up the church leaders spiritually and to set their work in the context of discipleship, as well as to teach them some of the fundamentals of the rules of governance of their denomination. The book concludes with concrete suggestions for how future work of the church board can be structured to reflect the emphasis highlighted in the training session.

excellent training resource

I am using this manual along with "Selected to Serve" and some other resources for an Officer Training Class. It is intense, but a fantastic training course. I recommend it very highly.
