The Calling And Qualifications of Elders
Published 2 years, 8 months ago
Description
In this episode, Jonny Ardavanis looks at the calling, and the qualifications of the elders/pastors that Christ has entrusted with shepherding His church.
In examining both 1 Peter 5 and 1 Timothy 3, Jonny highlights 16 explicit qualifications and two fundamental attitudes that define those who lead the church.
Why is this important for a church member? Because if you’re a Christian you are called to submit to the elders of the church (Heb. 13:17). Therefore understanding their calling and qualifications are essential for every Christian.
