it struck me the other day that women ordained to the office of deacon are then “church officers.” How can a church officer, even though female, not be someone invested with authority?
I’d like to know how strongly members of the board who are opposed to the ordination of women as deacons feel about this. Would it be a matter requiring separation if your church ordained a woman to the office of deacon?
