The Shepherd’s Heart
Mark Howard
So far we have considered the character, competence and calling of elders in Titus 1 and 1 Timothy 3. In 1 Peter 5, we see that an elder should model his ministry on that of the Good Shepherd.

The Elder’s Competence & Calling
Mark Howard
The church is God’s family, and it’s leaders are called to act like spiritual ‘fathers’. In 1 timothy 3:1-7, we see what this implies for the things we should look for in an elder.

The Elder’s Character
Mark Howard
The world desperately needs leadership and the church needs leaders who can help us point others to Jesus. In Titus 1, God lays out the character qualifications we should look for in such leaders.
