- Description:
- The title of this dissertation is Leading By Serving: A Leadership Training Process. This dissertation is the result of a leadership training process the Rev. Jeff Ehlers designed for Christ Lutheran Church in East Point, Georgia. This dissertation is submitted as a part of the requirements for the Doctor of Ministry degree. There are 177 pages in the body of the text, excluding the appendices. This project is a seven session training process designed to aid the leadership of local congregations. The seven sessions include: the purpose of the church, basic leadership principles, planning, spiritual gifts, worker recruitment, small group dynamics, and evaluation and the writing of personal action plans. The purpose of this seven session project is to provide lay leaders with some basic skills, tools and principles concerning leadership in the church. This project grew out of a perception that the lay leadership of local congregations generally is not given the proper training necessary for the exercise of their responsibilities.
