Why I Support PCA Overture 13 on How to View Assistants to Deacons

Written by Andy Webb | Saturday, June 26, 2010

If, as a denomination we believe that women serving in the office of deacon is unbiblical, we must make it clear that BCO 9-7 does not allow women to be elected to or serve in the office of deacon.
