Christ has authorized two offices in the church: that of Pastors and Deacons. The New Testament uses the terms Pastor, Elder, and Overseer interchangeably. In this sermon Pastor David explains what Pastors/Elders/Overseers should be and do as well as how the church should relate to its Pastors/Elders/Overseers.

1 Peter 5:1–4 So I exhort the elders among you, as a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, as well as a partaker in the glory that is going to be revealed: 2 shepherd the flock of God that is among you, exercising oversight, not under compulsion, but willingly, as God would have you; not for shameful gain, but eagerly; 3 not domineering over those in your charge, but being examples to the flock. 4 And when the chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the unfading crown of glory.
