New Group looking for Pathfinder DM/ Someone to help New DM

A few friends and I have decided to try out DnD and found a pretty cool Pathfinder campaign that we wanted to try. Me being the only person who has ever played DnD (about 40 total hours) they elected me as DM, I feel pretty unqualified to do so and therefore hoping to find someone who wouldn't mind either DMing for us or maybe a part time DM to help me get things off the ground.
We Are hoping to play Wed/Friday nights around 8-9 Central Standard Time
One idea is to start an Adventure Path, with the idea that you would take over at some point.  This would allow you develop your confidence and it would make it easier for you to step in when the time comes.  What do you think?
That was the plan actually we were going to do "Serpants Skull" I already downloaded the PDF version of the Book. But my biggest concern is the lack of ever really doing it before and don't want it to get derailed by my lack of initial knowledge and allowing the campaign to go to far off the rails. 
The best thing for you in this case in my opinion is give it a shot anyway, maybe find an extra player with rules experiance who you can bounce questions off them, since the big part of DMing is just practice and experiance which you get by doing if someone just helps with rules questions it's not a big issue if you miss rules it's all about fun depending on time I'd be happy to help with the rules stuff and as a helpful and experienced player depending on the time.
This Wed is supposed to be Char. Creation day and I feel pretty confident that I can help and stop somebody from making a crucial poor move, putting points in wrong abilities/feats type of things. But like you said I think the fact that i'm the "most" knowledgeable person in the group i'm more concerned with my lack of knowledge of rules and the likes that would derail or ruin the campaign.
really just read ahead in the campaign, at least have a way to referance the rules you need for the campaign and be able to look up what your players have for characters, but I can help with any of that if you want but personally no interest in DMing if you'd like

If you just want a crash course in how to DM for pathfinder I can help run you throught it. I can also help you prep for games and even show up to the first few sessions to advise depending on when you're playing. PM me if interested.  Cheers.
