Our Passion for Christ
The character and effectiveness of any church is directly related to the quality of its leadership. That’s why Scripture stresses the importance of godly overseers and delineates specific standards for evaluating those who would serve in that position. At New Ground, we are committed to the pattern established in the New Testament, and we thank the Lord for the qualified, able people who provide pastoral and administrative oversight to our church family.
Jesus promised to build his church (Matthew 16:18) and established Himself as its foundation (1 Corinthians 3:11). In Ephesians 4:8–11, the apostle Paul writes that church leaders are God’s agents in building the church as they equip the saints for the work of the ministry.
Our church has been blessed with godly elders who shepherd us willingly, eagerly, and humbly.
