The Selection, Appointment, and Duty of Elders
This material was prepared and presented to a Men's One-Day Study seminar that included area preachers, elders, deacons, and Christian men who were interested in the subject. Its purpose was to address some of the most common problems Christians and congregations face regarding the subject matter. Therefore, not every aspect, detail, or question of the Selection (including Qualifications), Appointment (problems with and suggestions for processes), and Duties of the office is covered. However, the author attempted to constructively assist our understanding of the most typical issues associated with this important subject.
