Equipping Husbands at Cornerstone Bible Church in Westfield, Indiana, to Grow As Spiritual Leaders in the Home

ABSTRACT EQUIPPING HUSBANDS AT CORNERSTONE BIBLE CHURCH IN WESTFIELD, INDIANA TO GROW AS SPIRITUAL LEADERS IN THE HOME Andrew Edward Miller, DEdMin The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, 2020 Faculty Supervisor: Dr. Robert D. Jones This project examines Scripture to establish a biblical theology for spiritual leadership within the home and equips men to become better leaders through content delivered in a workshop format. Chapter 1 provides context for the project and outlines goals, rationale, and methods undergirding the proposed training. Chapter 2 examines four passages men should consider as they think about leading in the home and develops a biblical theology for how husbands might approach growing as spiritual leaders. This chapter impresses upon men the importance of understanding their spouse and the need to lead as a servant. Chapter 3 surveys the writings of various thought leaders on the topic of leading biblically. Specifically, materials related to the marital relationship are examined and compared. Chapter 4 puts forth a summary of curriculum to be utilized for eight hours of training and equipping. Chapter 5 offers a summary of findings, an assessment of results, and a reflection upon proposed changes in future iterations of the project.
