, Sylvia speaks with Rev David Woolcott and Anna Garven from Macquarie Chapel Presbyterian Church.

Macquarie Chapel is one of a number of Presbyterian churches in NSW that currently has women serving as elders and hopes to continue that practice. Dave and Anna share the theological convictions that have shaped their approach, how women and men serve together in the life of the church, and why they believe this model has strengthened discipleship, consultation, and ministry at Macquarie Chapel.

As the Presbyterian Church of NSW continues to discuss the proposal to amend the qualifications of eldership, this conversation seeks to understand the perspective of those who hope to retain the current position. Throughout the episode, Dave and Anna reflect on Scripture, church life, disagreement, unity, and what it looks like to honour Christ and one another at Macquarie Chapel.
