This book reviews historic biblical principles that are critically important in local church governance for all times, cultures, and governance models, emphasizing the positive outcomes of adherence and the hard consequences of neglect. With a lifetime of ministry leadership experience, Stephen Gammon reviews necessary biblical principles such as headship, leadership, and membership. Questions are included for personal reflection and for prayerful discussion among church leadership teams. From long ministry experience in the Conservative Congregational Christian Conference in the USA, and internationally with the World Evangelical Congregational Fellowship (WECF), Gammon also includes an insightful addendum on Practicing Biblical Congregationalism.
