- The Presbyterian Church (USA) is governed by ruling elders in its congregations. These lay leaders are required to go through a course of education prior to assuming their office. The exact nature of that training is not made explicit in the church's constitution, so it is left to each congregation to discern a program that will prepare their ruling elders for faithful service. This mandated moment is an opportunity for positive spiritual growth. But many of the approaches to this task have relied on a heavily didactic method that focuses on transferring information, rather than a devotional method which focuses on spiritual formation. What is offered here is entitled 'Prayerful preparation: Elder education as spiritual formation.' The question is whether a course of education that emphasizes daily Bible study, daily prayer, and reflection will move elders towards greater spiritual growth and make them better prepared as they assume the office of ruling elder.
