Elders put persons and the mission of God above all else.
Mission-oriented elders are committed to Jesus, truth, and the mission of God. To help the church live this out, they fit the church's communications and practices to the current time and culture. They prioritize persons and the practices of community above structures and processes. They model mission-oriented discipleship. They spend more time caring about spiritual health than about headcounts and money. They subordinate tradition to flexibly follow the Spirit on mission.
