I believe most elders aren't doing what they should be in the first place. They are elevated business managers right now. They should be shepherding and caring for the flock.

So to ask if women can be elders, I believe we need to look at what the duty of an elder is in the first place and get that right before we tread into divisive realms.



There are presently 39 pages in this thread.  I know we've discussed what you are suggesting.
