You’re not just leading a congregation — you’re guiding a team of leaders. At the core of that leadership are your church elders.

We know that a healthy, unified board is crucial for church vitality and pastoral well-being. The struggle is creating an elder experience that’s life-giving, productive, and spiritually enriching for everyone involved.

How would your church thrive if your leadership team was truly unified and connected? How would your ministry improve if your board meetings were a source of joy?

Keys to Leading A Healthy Elder Team is a Training Day designed specifically for pastors who want a practical framework for cultivating a healthy, effective elder team.

What we’ll cover during this Training Day

• Deep Dive into Elder Team Dynamics: Understand the biblical role of elders, the stages of elder team function as churches grow, and the mindset church leaders need to foster a unified and joyful leadership team.
• Actionable Strategies: This isn’t theory, but proven practical steps that give pastors a roadmap for success in selecting elders, structuring meetings, and relating to the team effectively.
• Sustainable Practices: Nothing is more discouraging than constant tension or dysfunction in your leadership team. Learn best practices for maintaining healthy relationships and productive governance over the long haul.

Serving as an elder should be life-giving, not life-draining. We’ll provide you with insights into creating an elder experience that strengthens your church, supports your leadership, and brings joy to everyone involved. In the process, you’ll move from viewing elder meetings as a necessary evil to embracing them as a source of encouragement and strength for your ministry.
