From Brian G. Hedges @http://meretheology.blogspot.com
Thabiti Anyabwile over at Pure Church has written a series of very thoughtful and helpful posts on how to choose qualified men as elders. He suggests lots of good, practical (and often convicting) questions. These are definitely worth reading.

Temperate, Self-Controlled, Respectable
