Leadership
Elders
Under Jesus’ authority over the entire church, He has entrusted local churches to elders who lead under Him. They teach, lead, care for and protect the church. (1 Peter 5:1-5, Acts 20:17 & 28) There is always a plurality of pastors and elders found in the New Testament.
Tomball Bible Church is Elder-led. A board of lay-elders and the senior pastor comprise the governing body of the congregation, while also serving as shepherds and teachers of Godly character (Titus 1:5-9;).
