Corporate Decision-making in the Church of the New Testament: Jeff Brown

While all churches recognize the need for organization, they are far from agreed about the form that the organization should take. More fundamentally, they do not even agree about the way of deciding. Debates over church organization involve a complex of questions. What role do members play in the government of the church? What are the offices of the church, and what authority do they exercise? What does leadership look like? How are decisions made and enforced? Jeff Brown has written this book in order to move beyond opinion and to discover what the New Testament actually depicts in terms of congregational decision-making.
