About Second Presbyterian Church of Richmond, Virginia
About Presbyterian Churches
Presbyterian churches are part of the Reformed tradition, tracing their theological roots to John Calvin and the Scottish Reformer John Knox. They are governed by elected elders (presbyters) in a representative system of local sessions, regional presbyteries, and general assemblies — no bishops, no single senior pastor with sole authority. Presbyterian worship is typically orderly and Word-centered: Scripture readings, congregational singing of psalms and hymns, and an expository sermon. They hold to Reformed theology emphasizing God's sovereignty, grace, the authority of Scripture, and the covenant relationship between God and his people. The Presbyterian Church (USA) is the largest mainline Presbyterian body, while the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA) represents a more theologically conservative stream.
