Paul tells Timothy that Biblical eldership is a noble task (1 Tim 3:1), so I want to aspire towards it. Like Boaz gathering city elders (Ruth 4:2) or the Proverbs 31:23 husband at the city gates, elders govern, serve, teach, and lead. It requires intentional growth in leadership, faith, marriage, parenting, business, and asset management. This training starts as a father in our home (1 Tim 3:4), qualifies us to be an elder in our city (1 Tim 3:5), and prepares us to rule with God in His Kingdom one day (Luke 19:11-27). Join me as I explore what it means to aspire to this noble task today. read.timschmoyer.com
