Why can the congregation simply appoint a call committee and start interviewing pastoral candidates?
In most cases, a congregation is not ready to begin a search for a pastoral candidate. Research has shown that a congregation needs to first discern the direction in which God is calling it to move and the characteristics of the type of pastor it needs. Only after it has completed this preliminary work should it attempt to search for its next pastor.
