What Pulpit Committees Wish Pastoral Candidates Understood
Description
How does a church’s pulpit committee vet multiple pastoral candidates and narrow down its recommendation to one candidate for the entire church to consider? How does the committee keep the church informed of progress while maintaining confidentiality? In this episode of RE:CHURCH, Marshall Fant discusses the function of pulpit committees with Kerry Baggett and Art Springer, chairman and member respectively of the pulpit committee of Faith Baptist Church in Taylors, SC. Kerry Baggett shares this encouragement for pastoral candidates, “For any pastor out there, the maturity you bring to the table—your spiritual maturity, your love for the Lord, your desire to want what God wants—is what will help keep you calm, knowing that you are wanting what God wants.”
