TEXT : Acts 1: 15-26 .
AIMS: To help participants
i. identify some of the godly leaders in the early church ;
ii. draw some vital lessons from their leadership examples ;
iii. State how the lessons can be applied in the building of the church and for
more positive impact in the world.
INTRODUCTION :
The history of the formative years of the Church is replete with personalities
who sacrificially committed themselves to the furtherance of the business of
the kingdom of God. Most of those who were privileged to provide leadership in
the various echelons of the church were exemplary in life. Some, like Paul, had
to willingly relinquish their pre-conversion gains/positions for obviously
dangerous and more strenuous lives of missionaries and Christian leaders.
This study shows how these early church leaders walked and what they
accomplished in building the Church.
STUDY GUIDE:
1. From the following scriptures, identify some of the early church leaders,
Acts 1: 13-14; 2 Tim. 1:1 .

CONCLUSION: Godly leadership in the Church promotes the well-being of the
people and advances God’s purpose for establishing the Church. They are
agents of positive change, even to the larger society. The Church today is in
dire need of such godly, sacrificial and committed leaders .
