Puritan Board Freshman
Hi guys. My wife and I were discussing pastors the other day and were wondering if there is a certain education requirement to be a pastor (i.e. become ordained). I always assumed that most pastors went to a seminary after getting a 3 or 4 year degree at a college or university, but I also have heard of some pastors that have little more then a diploma or four year degree at a bible college. Does it differ in denominations when a pastor can be ordained (have the necessary training)? Then comes the question of what a congregation would deem acceptable education for a pastor to have.
Anyways any light that could be shed on this would be greatly appreciated.
