And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry...

for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes. Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love.” – Ephesians 4:11-16

We believe that the God-ordained form of government for a local church is through a plurality of elders. In addition, we believe that it is both biblical and healthy for local churches to be in partnership with and accountable to Ephesians 4 gifts. As such, One Light Church’s eldership is accountable to apostolic leaders from Southlands Church and the Advance Movement of churches.

Due to our leaders’ involvement with churches in sensitive and restricted access nations, we do not publish the identities of our elders here. However, we welcome personal inquiries for anyone who wishes to learn more about our elders. Thank you for understanding.
