Al,
Recently we received the September issue of Gospel Advocate to which we have subscribed for probably close to 40 years. This issue is entitled "The Care and Feeding of the Flock." It occurred to me a small congregation can get away without elders but can a congregation of 150 members with a million dollar plus building? I am as much the problem as anyone because I have no interest in being an elder. But does it say something about a congregation of 150 when it has no one qualified to be an elder or interested in being and elder and has no plans to get people to be qualified?
In his editorial, Neil Anderson writes that sheep flock together, but they tend to wander without good leadership, Considering we lead by committee are we headed in the right direction?
