Life At The Ridge

Does God's Word give requirements for those who shepherd and lead the flock? Why are these requirements necessary? I Timothy 3:1-7 gives us the instructions and qualifications for those who are to be in leadership as they serve the local church through teaching the Word and helping others grow spiritually. It is our prayer that Pleasant Ridge will strive to be led by a plurality of Biblically qualified men who can shepherd and protect the flock.
