...and the Pastor would decide on assistants as well as choose the Deacons with the Deacons. If any of that makes sense. But being an independent Baptist church it is democratic in nature...
I've never been in an IBC, but have been one kind of Baptist or another all my life. The biblical example of selecting deacons is that the congregation selects godly men from their midst. That is more democratic that a pastor and existing deacons doing the selecting.
