On-demand replay will be available after the live event
Presented by Paul Hooker

Are you a deacon or ruling elder wondering what you’ve signed up for? This webinar will explore what serving in the church’s ordered ministries is all about (including what we mean by “ordered ministry”) and how the Book of Order can be an important resource for you in your work.

Participants in this webinar will:

  1. Gain exposure to the theological and historical principles that define the church and its ordered ministries.

  2. Understand what we mean by “ordination” and “ordered ministry,” and how these are different than “holding office.”

  3. Gain a clear idea of how the church’s polity thinks about the work of deacon and ruling elder, and how that can make a difference in your ministry.
