The recently released document from the NALC on the ordination of women and men is an excellent statement on the nature of Christian ministry and our understanding of Word and Sacrament ministry. For those who would like to explore these same issues with a congregational audience, I invite you to engage with Sola's three-part Bible Study on the topic: "The Mutual Ministry of Women and Men."
