They're talking church government at the BHT. Michael Spencer highlights why I left the PCA:

I don't believe having to call the COM from the Presbytery in Lex to deal with a wild card pastor is one of them. I remain convinced that the relationship between congregation and pastor needs to be direct, and not mediated. I take with that all the nonsense that can happen, but if my pastor/elders start a mission without congregational permission or proper process, I want to be able to stand up in the monthly business meeting and ask what kind of luggage he prefers.
