Who are the four leaders of the Church?
Four Types of Church Leaders: Builders, Breakers, Fixers, Maintainers.
What were the churches first leaders called?
Deacons. The word deacon literally means “servant,” so, in one way, we are all “deacons” because we are all servants of Jesus Christ. But that word was also used as a title for an official leadership role in the church. Deacons first appeared at the beginning of Acts, when the church first started.
