In this episode, Peter outlines the work of the elder, which is to shepherd the flock of God. He emphasizes that the flock belongs to God, not the elders, and that elders should lead willingly and not under compulsion, but voluntarily, according to the will of God.
“Shepherd the flock of God among you, exercising oversight, not under compulsion, but voluntarily, according to the will of God; and not with greed but with eagerness;” – 1 Peter 5:2 (NASB)
🔥 True leadership in the church is a calling to serve with a willing heart, not out of obligation or selfish gain!
