To Equip His People

Brad Dufault examines Ephesians 4:11-16 to clarify a critical misunderstanding about church leadership—that leaders exist not to do all the ministry work, but to equip God's people for works of service. He argues this error has been one of the church's greatest mistakes, creating a dynamic where a few exhausted leaders serve thousands of passive spectators. Dufault breaks down the five leadership roles Paul mentions (apostles, prophets, evangelists, shepherds, teachers) and explains how understanding these categories can help leadership teams capitalize on their strengths while addressing weaknesses in their equipping ministry.
