OverviewThe church is an earthly expression of God's love. Unfortunately, there is too often discord within the church, resulting in the untimely dismissal of pastors. Ours is a God of peace and harmony; we must resolve our conflicts so the church can fulfill its God given responsibilities: to honor God, mature the believers, and bring salvation to the lost. Who Is in Control of the Church is an extraordinary work of ministerial scholarship that offers specific guidance for how pastors can unite the church to fulfill their mutual ministries. Here are just a few of the topics covered in this book: Authority that is conferred on pastors, and earned by the pastor The church's responsibilities to the pastor and vice versa Motivation for obeying God's authority Dr. John Adams and Dr. Gayle Alexander have more than one hundred years of combined experience in the church, and during that time, they are aware of far too much conflict. But more importantly, they have also seen solutions to avoid those conflicts. Those solutions are contingent on pastors and church people fulfilling their own responsibilities in the love and spirit of Jesus Christ our Lord.
