In this 2-part,bonus episode of Chorus in the Chaos, Jack is joined by Pastor David Chambers of Zion PCA in Lincoln, Nebraska, to discuss the critical topic of eldership in the church. Drawing from biblical texts like 1 Timothy 3, Titus 1, and James 3:1, they examine eldership's qualifications, responsibilities, and its spiritual weight.

Why is it so easy for churches to prioritize business skills over biblical character? What dangers arise when churches choose leaders based on charisma instead of calling? And how can churches ensure their elders are shepherds and not just board members? Jack and David tackle these questions and more, offering insight into what it means to be above reproach and truly accountable in church leadership.

Key Topics Discussed:
✔️ What the Bible says about eldership (1 Timothy 3 & Titus 1)
✔️ The dangers of the celebrity pastor culture
✔️ Why spiritual maturity matters more than leadership charisma
✔️ The importance of local church accountability
✔️ Practical steps for churches selecting elders

Resources Mentioned:
📖 1 Timothy 3:1–7 & Titus 1:5–9 – Biblical qualifications for eldership
📖 James 3:1 – The weight of responsibility for those who teach
