If you track the way church has operated for hundreds of years, you will see striking similarities.
Structure
In structure there is always a leader or group of leaders (sometimes appointed, sometimes elected), then successive levels of leaders who are tasked with various responsibilities or tasks that fit within the desired scope of the primary leaders of the church. Leaders often set the focus or emphasis for a particular time for the church. You can see the results of this trajectory in the churches systems, services, and programs.
