This article reflects on the calling of a minister to a different church. 

This article is about the calling to office, and the nomination and the calling of the the office-bearers through the congregation.

This article looks at the purpose of the office of elders in general and at the specific tasks of the elder according to the church order.

This article is about the equality between office-bearers and the authority of the office.

This article looks at the ruling task and the supervision task of the elders, as well as the elders' task of evangelism and pastoral care.

This article is about censura morum, the censure and discipline of office-bearers. Supervision over the doctrine and life and work of the officers are very important. This article also discusses encouragement for the office-bearer, equal authority between officers and hierarchy in the church.

This article makes a plea to be consistent in separating the function of elders and deacons, thus excluding deacons from the consistory (except when they are specifically required, as stipulated by the church order). This will help each office to concentrate on their own work and calling.

This article looks at the decision of the General Synod 1993 of the Reformed churches in the Netherlands in regard to women voting in the election of office bearers.

The fact that churches work with so many committees poses the danger that the church may be ruled by these committees. This can happen when church councils neglect their duty and when information is manipulated by the church committee members. However, when committees remember that they are servants and are accountable to the church council, their service will be of benefit to the church.

This article discusses the casting of lots as a means to elect office-bearers in the church. Should we use lots?

This article looks at women voting for officer-bearers in the church. The author looks at the following questions: Is voting governing? What does the headship of the man have to do with women voting?

This article looks at the election, installation and period of service of deacons.

This article is about eldership and the specified term of office for the elders (term eldership).

Should women be alowed to vote for officebearers? This author maintains that only men should vote. The decision not to let women vote should not be taken personally. Voting men in the church represent the whole church; this is in line with our biblical example.

This article argues that there is no biblical evidence approving or disapproving women from voting for office-bearers, and that this matter must be left to the freedom of each church.

This article looks at the release of a minister from his congregation (not because of a new calling). Under what circumstances can the minister-congregation relationship be dissolved?

This article looks at the question if there is two or three offices in the church. The author discusses the relation between the task of the minister and the elder, and focuses on the preacher as minister of the Word, the administration of the sacraments and the blessing in the worship service. 1 Timothy 5:17 is also discussed in this article.

This article is about a situation where a minister is unfit or incapable to serve a certain congregation, and has to be dismissed.

This article is about the way ministers and office-bearers should be bound in churches. Is it enough to only bind officers to the confessions?
