In the teacher’s edition of this week’s lesson study, there is an exercise titled “Jesus Chairs the Nominating Committee.” The instructions are to write the list of current church offices, such as children’s Sabbath School teacher, social activities director, elder, deacon, greeter, church clerk, etc. on a white board for a discussion of how essential these positions are to the mission of the church, and what would Jesus do with a list like this?
This is a companion discussion topic for the original entry at https://spectrummagazine.org/article/bonnie-dwyer/2014/03/14/jesus-chairs-nominating-committee
