Women in Ministry Policy Summary

Cadence believes that the women in the mission have incredible value, worth, and esteem to the mission and its leadership, and that they offer immeasurable contribution to the purposes of Cadence and its unique role in fulfilling the Great Commission. The women of Cadence are treated with honor and respect, and their counsel regarding the purposes, direction, vision, and health of the organization is highly regarded and regularly pursued.

Cadence also believes that the role of elder in the local church is given by God to men for the primary purposes of shepherding, overseeing, and teaching the community of believers, and that the role of headship in marriage is also a position given by God to men for the primary purposes of overall responsibility, sacrificial love, humble understanding, and ultimately being a Christ-like catalyst. Cadence staff work within a Complementarian framework as it relates to the expression of the spiritual gifts both men and women possess.
