No, The Bible does specifically specify that Pastor/Ministers be male.
of course a woman should pastor a church, they have just as much right to as any man. Paul himself said;
"There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus." (Galatians 3:28)anyone can and should be a pastor, your gender doesn't matter, for we are all equal in god's eyes
Yes, of course women can pastor a church. In the Bible women are called into leadership rolls. Deborah was a judge and the leader over all of Israel, Huldah spoke God's word to both king and priest, and Miriam was another prophet whose song became holy scripture. Notice that these were very patriarchical times, and yet God kept calling forth women to lead.

The role of a woman in the church, is to obey the Pastor! The man is the head of the woman, just as Christ is the head of the Church! There was no woman preacher! A woman is a lade member, unless the Pastor of the church a sign her to do something Other than that she is a servant to the church. In other words to Christ.
Wait for what? To get a new Pastor? We have a guy at our Church who Preaches if our Pastor can't make it to Church or if he passes away

No. The pastor is called to shepherd and therefore must have a certain amount of authority but God is the head of the church. The pastor should be the highest human authority within the church but not so high that he is above accountability from the other elders in the church.
WHAT?! No, a pastor of ANY church cannot ask someone to move out of town and any good, Christian pastor would never do that! The only thing a pastor may do is if he feels that a member of a church has committed a bad sin and will not confess, the pastor can have the church vote on it and the person may be asked to leave the church, but NO PASTOR can kick someone out of town and if that is what's happening, than that pastor is not a good, Christian pastor and he should be reported to the head of the district for whatever denomination his church is.
Yes, the pastor should sit on the board to bring his working knowledge of the church from his unique perspective to the board. (Used the male pronoun as the Bible does specifically specify that Pastor/Ministers be male.)
yes, we should go to church every Sunday. but we should not change our church. we should give offering to only one pastor.
Sometimes, but usually the church council decides who will become the next pastor. If the church has no council, then the clergy members of the church will come together and decide which one of them will be pastor.
In a letter to a new pastor, it is important to say congratulations. The letter should also list the good things about the church and the events that the church offers.
Fred Phelps is the pastor of Westboro Baptist Church.
Pastor
No a parsonage cannot be owned by the church and the pastor. If the church as an organization owns something it cannot be co owned by an individual. The pastor is an employee of the church not a co-owner of the church/organization.
