    That is from the Bible itself. and while we can and have debated on if sing;es/biblically dirvorced can assume pastor role, hopefully, we are can agree that the Bible teaches to us that a Christian cannot divorce another believer and not reconcile back to her, and if she has not yet remarried, to attempt to come back together again before the lord!

    Bumping a five-year-old thread here. I fall into the latter category because my first wife abandoned the marriage for an affair. In the intervening years, I married again, this time to a woman who herself was divorced because her first husband was an unrepentant pedophile.
    While I have no desire to pastor a church, I would still like doing pulpit supply or some kind of rescue mission stuff in my old age. So I appreciate the opinion and the distinctions drawn here.
