When a church needs to hire a pastor, the first step is usually to form a pastoral search committee. I have a few questions for anyone willing to answer:
1) Is it wise to have a committee of members (elders, deacons, laypeople) in the first place? Would it be better for only the elders of the church to be the search committee?
2) If a church has a "search committee", can anyone discuss the biblical reasons why or why not women should serve on the committee in looking for the new pastor?
Thanks!
