Leadership has been critical since the church’s inception. In Titus 1:6-9 and 1 Timothy 3:1-7, Scripture describes both what church leaders should embody and how they should function. Leadership that is servant-oriented, sacrificial, Spirit-led, and guided by Scripture captures the essence of biblical leadership.  

Practically at ValleyPoint Church, the Lead Pastor is responsible for the daily business of the church, and the Elder Ministry Team cares for the spiritual quality and doctrinal integrity of the church. Specifically, Elders shall:

+ Settle all doctrinal questions; establish and implement church policy; exercise general oversight of all operational, business, and financial property matters.

+ Shepherd the members of the church by spiritually knowing, feeding, leading, and protecting; lovingly lead by example.

+ Oversee the preparation of an annual budget for the next fiscal year. 

“This is a trustworthy saying: If someone aspires to be an elder, he desires an honorable position” (1 Timothy 3:1). We are thankful for our elders and the leadership, shepherding, and love they provide for our church family.
