The SMT is to “Be shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, serving as overseers - not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be; not greedy for money, but eager to serve; not lording over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock.” The role of the SMT is to assist the senior pastor and staff in the spiritual management of the church.
