Synodical Government

Synodical government is a system of church governance where authority is shared among a group of leaders, known as a synod. This system is commonly found in various Protestant denominations. In synodical governance, local church leaders come together in regional or national assemblies to make decisions, set policies, and provide oversight for congregations. This model emphasizes collaboration and accountability, allowing diverse voices to contribute to church direction and doctrine, rather than centralizing power in a single leader or hierarchy. It aims to promote unity and adapt to the needs of different congregations while maintaining a common faith.
