The Atmosphere
Leading: In keeping with the leadership strategy of Jesus and Paul, we try to lead gently, humbly and approachably, with servant hearts, through example, in a down-to-earth manner, with God’s authority, but respecting individual conscience, and through team (based on Heb 13v7-24).

Following: We encourage followers to follow by emulating our example, honouring the reality that we must give account to God, obeying us, helping us enjoy life and leadership, and by praying for us (based on Heb 13v7-24).

The Layout

1. Jesus is the head of the Church (Eph 1v18-23)
2. Apostles and prophets (mostly via Newfrontiers) regularly help lay solid foundations to help us stay on course (Eph 4, Acts 11-14).
3. Elders/overseers/pastors: scripture presents a team of male elders who oversee the church by guarding, guiding and governing the local congregation (see Acts 14v23, Acts 20v28, 1 Tim 5v17, 1 Tim 3, Titus 1 & 2, 1 Pet 5).
4. Deacons: these are men and women who work closely with the elders by serving as senior leaders (see Acts 6, 1 Tim 3).
5. Pastoral Team: this is a team of men and women who to assist the elders in pastoring the flock, and they do this mostly through Life Groups.
