Goodreads Librarians Group discussion

Please add the following new title in two print editions of the same book — paperback and hardcover. Not yet on Goodreads; I've searched by ISBN and by title.

Note on styling, please preserve exactly: the title's capitalization is intentional — lowercase "un", capital "B": unBiblical Eldership. The author's surname carries diacritics: Sedláček (á and č). If you cross-check Bowker you'll see "Sedlacek" — their registration form couldn't render the č; the book itself and all publisher metadata use Sedláček.

Format: Hardcover

Description (both editions):

This title may read like an accusation. If you are an elder and your guard just went up, that instinct — to defend the office — is a right one. So hear this first: this book is not an exposé. It names no church and settles no scores. It is a diagnosis of something quieter: the ordinary, unremarkable drift by which good men who love Scripture come to lead in ways Scripture would not recognize. No scandal required, and no villain — the author writes as a lay elder of more than two decades who sat at the table and drifted with the room.

If you sit in a pew and were told the trouble was your own heart, these pages will deal honestly with you — about what you saw, and about what to do with it now.

If you sit at the table and something in the room has begun to trouble you, they will help you name it — and then hand you the repair. That is the aim of every page: not exposure, but recovery — a leadership brought back near the Shepherd it serves.

Thank you!
