This study seeks to investigate leadership in the evangelical church in Spain and Europe.Today we are living through important social, religious and political changes. The management and administration of church leadership by those fishermen in the times of Jesus is totally different than what we see in Spain, Europe and the world.An important crisis exists in the midst of the leadership in the evangelical church. However, with the fifteenth chapter of the Book of Acts as a theoretical and practical framework, we will study the different styles, bases and strengths of leadership, which will serve as a framework to respond to the problems, challenges and opportunities of today’s church leadership.As we investigate leadership, we will begin with the history of Spanish Protestantism. The XIX Century was a difficult time, since Spain was isolated due to its lack of freedom and obscurantism. From there, we will highlight some of the prominent leaders, men and women who, due to their attributes and leadership style, will have some correlation to the 6 character and competencies to those found in the Book of Acts. These leaders fought against all hope of freedom in Spain. Thankfully because of them, we can now enjoy the freedom that they were never able to experience. Lastly, after analyzing the styles of how the administration and management of leadership of the XXI century should be; since they are not functional in the modern world, we will evaluate the traditional approaches to leadership. A thorough analysis of reports, interviews, lectures, and forums attended, plus national and international conferences, will allow us to identify the fundamental characteristics and competencies that an evangelical leader of the XXI century needs. A special emphasis is placed on the second decade of the XXI century, since covering the whole century is risky given the fact that each decade has its unique needs, risks and opportunities in the rapidly changing world in which we live.
