Our Sister, Phoebe: A Survey of Biblical and Historical Support for the Deaconess in the Modern Church

Who was Phoebe, the "sister" Paul mentions in his epistle? Was she a deaconess? What is a deaconess?

This book surveys the Old and New Testaments and church history in search of the answers to these questions and others that arise in the debate over women in ministry in the modern Christian church.
