In this message taken from 1 Timothy 3:1-7 we examine the qualifications for elder. We learn that the biblical elder is one who “visits” God’s people on His behalf through the preaching and teaching of His word. We also explain in this message the various terms that are used for the pastor/elder position as we define the organizational structure that God has given for the church. Come and hear why God has sent pastors to shepherd His flock.
