The Pastor's Heart with Dominic Steele

**D.A. Carson Themelois “overseer” as managing functions. **

The role of a church leader goes beyond merely overseeing individuals, as they are managing an extended family requiring skills in organization and management.

It is crucial for elders to possess the ability to manage and organize effectively, which is often lacking in the cultural context of reformed evangelicals.

Neglecting strategic planning could hinder the church's efforts in reaching out to the community and fulfilling its mission.
