The director of Youth and Discipleship will not be able to succeed himself for how many terms?

• A. One four-year term
• B. One year term
• C. Two four-year terms
• D. Four-year term

Answer: (A)

Term limits and succession rules in church leadership prevent a single person from keeping power by requiring rotation after a set period. In this policy, the director of Youth and Discipleship may serve one four-year term but cannot succeed himself for a second consecutive term. The four-year length is the standard term, so the constraint is specifically about not immediately re-running for another term—after one term, he would need a break before being eligible again (depending on other provisions). That’s why the correct interpretation is that he cannot succeed himself for one four-year term. The other options don’t fit because they imply different durations or no limit, which isn’t what the rule states.
