Leadership Team

Lakeway is led by a team of people who are sometimes referred to as "elders," but we prefer the term Leadership Team or "LT." Which ever name you choose, these are the people that God has led to take responsibility under Christ, to provide care, protection and direction for the church.

The Leadership Team is chosen through a process of nomination from the congregation, prayer and wise counsel. The Bible gives criteria for this level of leadership which can be found in the books of 1 Timothy and Titus.
