In this episode of In All Things, Dean sits down with Zach Hopkins, a teaching elder and member of the EPC’s Permanent Judicial Commission. Together, they explore the courts of the church, the importance of presbyteries in our connectional system, and how overtures shape the life and direction of our family of churches.
As his presbytery brings several overtures to this year’s General Assembly, Zach also gives us a closer look at what it means for an overture to “ascend” to GA, what the discernment process looks like at every level, and how the permanent Judicial Commission serves in maintaining our shared commitments.
Whether you’re a first-time commissioner or a long-time attendee, this conversation offers a helpful and accessible look into how polity strengthens our Firm Foundation.
