The Ecclesiologist is the outworking of a vision to help leaders in the church, namely elders and deacons, guide their congregations in wise decision-making, planning, strategizing, and various large or small change. The goal of the work would be to see healthier churches. We affirm the primary commission of the church to make disciples, yet we also realize that to be faithful to this commission long-term, and to make healthy disciples, churches must continually be seeking to renew healthy practices.
More specifically, The Ecclesiologist is a group effort. Church leaders contribute short, practical articles to answer pestering questions about church life. The work is free; the experience is priceless.
While just a concept at the moment, more time will be spent in the near future outlining specific goals, creating a writing calendar, and marketing the publication. Ultimately, the Lord gives the growth, but the hope for this publication would be that it may advance beyond the Substack community.
“Give your servant therefore an understanding mind to govern your people, that I may discern between good and evil, for who is able to govern this your great people?” 1 Kings 3:9 (ESV)
