The Leadership

The Leadership

From the above descriptions our purpose and mission should be somewhat evident. Believing that the Bible is the authoritative revelation of God and that it is His purpose to transform people through the manifestation of His graciousness, we have organized ourselves according to the pattern exemplified in the New Testament church. Our intent is to use the same organizational mechanism that they used in our efforts to communicate God’s message to the people of our generation.

The Overseers

They organized themselves under the leadership of those known as shepherds (pastors), overseers (bishops) or elders (1 Timothy 3:1-7; Titus 1:5-9; 1 Peter 5:1-3). These men have special qualifications and are selected from among the congregation to instruct, equip, train, encourage, nurture and otherwise support the congregation in its efforts to accomplish the work God has given it to do.

The Body

In the New Testament church every member was expected to contribute to the accomplishment of the goal. Ephesians 4:16 describes the church as a body and says that it is “fitted and held together by what every joint supplies, according to the proper working of each individual part.” The result is that the body grows and is built up in love. Here at the Fort Logan church our intent is to take this seriously. There are no spectators, only players. Each one works to identify where they “fit” in the work and then to apply their energies accordingly (Rom. 12:4-8). We are a working organization with objectives defined by God, not a “safety deposit box” where Christians are merely kept safe until the Lord returns.

The Teachers

Within this work there are Bible class teachers, those who have responsibility for children’s and adult curriculum, those who take care of finances, and a whole host of other tasks. The congregation contributes to the support of a variety of evangelists, ministers or preachers. Those to whom we are presently committed on a regular basis are identified below.

Wayne Galloway
