Rickard is charitable, referring to the practice in the abstract. It makes sense to do this, the purpose of the article is to demonstrate why this FFO variant is bad on principle. It's not hypothetical though: A sizable minority of Presbyterian churches are already doing this.
Great article from Thomas Rickard (@ThomasERickard) about how functional female officers (labeled non-ordained commissioned deaconesses in the article) diminish the diaconate: pcapolity.com/2026/04/23/dim…

Also, just so everyone is aware, several churches Jeffery Choi has held a leadership in did not wait for an BCO amendment or a "careful and charitable conversation" like this to pass in order to install deaconesses/female deacons. They have already done so. ⬇️
Now that Overture 37 is public, I’m hoping for a careful and charitable conversation about women ordained deacons. For me, this isn’t a culture-war issue but a question of biblical fidelity, authority, and how we understand the offices Christ gave the church—especially the diaconate as an office of service (pcaga.org/resources/#overtur…)

Apparently there was a clerical error during the posting of the overture. The language of the amendment is not affected, but it was missing the entire rationale section. The correct version can be found here: pcaga.org/wp-content/uploads…

How did the Northern Presbyterian Church (PUSA) end up voting in 1956 to ordain women as pastors?
It didn’t happen overnight.
It came through a slow descent. medium.com/@thomas.rickard/s…
