I am sitting in the higher education and ministry legislative committee at General Conference. It’s fascinating to watch the church at work. They are dealing with issues such as clergy voting rights, which don’t have much appeal beyonf those who it directly affects, but it is important to model christian actions. What we do in-house, so to say, reflects on what we do on the outside.

Paul I am ignorant of all things related to General Conference. Is there competition for what educational and legislative proposals will be considered? What is the process by which ideas get adopted for consideration? Do each of these committees have mission statements, or some other form of guidance (formal or informal) that lead them in their deliberations? Thanks.
