Leadership
God is adamantly opposed to anything that obstructs people from getting to know Him. Stonecrest leadership strives to follow the examples and processes Jesus designed for His church. God is the head of our Church and our leaders are servants to his people.
Pay careful attention to yourselves and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to care for the church...
Acts 20:28
