“This overture helps foster better shepherding relationships between presbyteries and men without call,” David Dickson says. “It allows presbyteries to take into account the particular circumstances of a man without call and easily extend the ‘without call’ status year to year, by a simple majority vote of presbytery as the case may warrant.”

Earlier this year, New Hope Presbyterian Church of Fairfax, Virginia, submitted an overture to Potomac Presbytery to change BCO 35-1 such that accused ministers will be required to testify against themselves.
