Thus says the LORD, “Let not a wise man boast of his wisdom, and let not the mighty man boast of his might, let not a rich man boast of his riches; but let him who boasts boast of this, that he understands and knows Me . . . Jeremiah 9:23-24
But God has given church leadership teams some guidelines which will help them avoid some drastic errors. The guidance is found in the spiritual character of the prospective pastor, his ministry qualifications, and his heart. The procedures and processes are secondary.
It is the one who works hard at teaching and preaching. An elder who has the responsibility of teaching and preaching but forsakes that responsibility in order to excel in administration is not “especially” worthy of double honor. An elder who teaches and preaches is not necessarily worthy of double honor either, but the one who excels and works hard at teaching and preaching is worthy of double honor. The Greek word for “work hard” has the idea of being physically, mentally, and emotionally weary from study. Now that is working hard!

Is the candidate self-willed,? Does he get angry when his desires are useful reference frustrated? Is he basically a fighter, or is he kind, patient, and willing to defer to others? Does he want to be the “king of the mountain” or have the “last word” about most issues?
How does the pastor work with the other leaders? The ideal model is one in which the pastor sees himself Figura just one of the team. He should believe that God sets the direction and vision of the church when unanimity is reached among all of the elders.
Many church leaders and Call Committees fail at the very beginning of the search process – the first meeting. The failure occurs when they first decide what type of pastor they want.
What are the pastor’s duties to a church? From God’s viewpoint every pastor is an elder and every elder has a pastor’s heart.
