There is a great deal of confusion about church leadership.
We believe the pastors or elders are the leaders of the church chosen by God (Acts 20:28) and recognized by the congregation, who voluntarily submit to their leadership for the benefit of their souls (see Hebrews 13:17).
For further knowledge on how the elders work together in leadership and church life, please read this helpful booklet:
"Biblical Eldership" by Alexander Strauch.
For further information on how elders are recognized by the congregation at Del Rey Church, see
