the Local Church Today and Tomorrow: A Back to Future Handbook on New Testament Principles

This handbook is designed to help the “co-builders” of the local church to build as close to the Architect’s desired end as possible, to assure that the local manifestation of the church is as identical to the universal as possible, and to encourage co- builders to follow the builder’s guide as provided by the Architect. “The author of this handbook obviously has great concern for the local church and the biblical leadership standard for same. The reader may be amazed with the amount of scriptural data presented and challenged to new and or renewed convictions for their church. The high calling for Godly leadership is humbly outlined for personal consideration. Reading with much prayer is recommended. May you be blessed and benefit as this reader/student has benefited having served under the author’s leadership. A brother in Christ.” Vern Ladd [former Chairman Board of Elders, Racine Bible Church, Racine, WI]
