In this course we use the metaphor of an Old Testament elder to illustrate the ministry board member's role, focusing on wisdom, understanding, and experience. The course explores legal and ethical obligations, emphasising three key duties: Duty of Care, Loyalty, and Obedience.
This course dives into the essential qualities of an ideal board member, drawing inspiration from Biblical examples and real-world expertise. We categorize attributes into four key areas: Foundational Items, Capacity and Commitment, Interpersonal Qualities, and Technical Expertise. By examining mission alignment, spiritual maturity, and other critical attributes, you'll gain valuable insights into building a board that can effectively guide your ministry. Whether you're seeking inspiration from Scripture or practical advice from the corporate world, this course empowers you to refine your board selection process and elevate the impact of your ministry.
