Jesus Christ is the Head of his church, variously described
in Scripture as a body, a flock, a temple, and a family. Just as a body has
bones, a flock its shepherd, a temple its blueprint, and a family its roles, so
also the church is not without its God-designed structure and authority.
New Hope Bible Church is led by a group of elders who, through studying the Word and
praying, seek the spiritual health of the congregation. A team of deacons serves the elders and the Body
by administering the operational affairs of the church. The true ministers of
the church are its members, who
equipped by the elders, serve others in grace and truth.
