Would someone guide me to the qualifications, and how to get started, in becoming a pastor of a church. What are the scriptures I need to study? Besides prayer, what other preparations can I make?

1 Timothy 3:1-7- This is a true saying, if a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work. 2A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; 3Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous; 4One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; 5(For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?) 6Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil. 7Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
A bishop, elder, pastor, shepherd is the same person/office. Also look at Acts 20:28
