How are conciliators selected?
In most cases, a conciliation administrator will consult with the parties and then nominate one or more Christian conciliators for the parties’ approval. Some cases need only a single conciliator, while others are better handled by a panel of three persons. It is often helpful to include a leader from each party’s church on a panel. In other cases, a panel may include an attorney, a pastor or Christian leader, and one other individual who is suited to help resolve the particular dispute. For example, if a dispute involves the construction of a building, one member of the panel may be an architect or contractor.
