Ruling Elder Dan Carrell, moderator of the 39th General Assembly, has named a study committee that will report to the 40th General Assembly on the issue of Insider Movements. The General Assembly authorized Carrell to appoint the study committee as part of its approval of Overture 9.

(Editor’s Note: At the General Assembly there was considerable discussion concerning this Overture. A report of that discussion and the full text of the approved revised overture can be accessed here.)

The seven-member committee includes four teaching elders and three ruling elders, including seminary professors, pastors, and missionaries. The teaching elders are Rev. Elder Wade Bradshaw of Blue Ridge Presbytery, Dr. David Garner of Philadelphia Metro West Presbytery, Dr. Nabeel Jabbour of Rocky Mountain Presbytery and Rev. William Nikides of Rocky Mountain Presbytery. The selected ruling elders are Dr. Robert Berman of Tennessee Valley Presbytery, Dr. Jonathan Mitchell of Eastern Carolina Presbytery and Thomas Seelinger of Philadelphia Presbytery.
