The verse from Ephesians 6:5 emphasizes the following points regarding the relationship between slaves and their earthly masters:

Hopefully, it's more of a midlife incident than a crisis, but this weekend I dumpster dived for 1,587 pounds of photovoltaics. Feeling a little sore. I hope 7.6W/lb isn't a bad deal. I'm still dismayed that the school district is just throwing them out.

Some posts cite Hindu "Mathas" (monasteries) and "Swamijis" ("abbots") with long history, strong societal presence, deep traditions. They're not cults or flimsy outfits. Their commitment to their faith deserves respect even if we disagree with their faith.
So, #ama but please, no disparaging. 🙏

- Definite and distinct ecclesiastical government
This is explicitly defined in your legal documents. It's the way in which you "govern" things that are legally owned by the "church." If you're going to start a church with some people, you need to have a way of working together. The more formal you are about writing all this stuff out, the easier it will be when you *inevitably* have conflict. (Conflict is normal, so everyone should expect it.)
I also wrote something up about this. Again, it's an example (using the term "coven", because I like it more) so take it for what it's worth:
Group agreements are collectively defined rules that describe how members should interact. They may function to simplify interactions, ensure access needs are met, or to protect against the emergence of hierarchical behavior.
You can use the following prompts, or define your own:
- How should we interact with each other?
- What are your access needs?
- What would help you feel safe and respected?
- How should we deal with conflict?
- How do we deal with unanswerable questions?
- What is the process by which we update these agreements?
Write down these agreements. Edit them until you reach consensus. If it isn't possible to reach a consensus, the group may need to break apart to form separate covens.
Keep these available to refer to as they may be needed during services. These agreements will change over time. Keep them updated and be sure to check in regularly, perhaps even through a specific yearly ritual, to make sure they all still apply and no more are needed.
