I will start in the middle of the story.
It was a Meeting for Worship for Business and I was speaking about the latest discussions held by elders and overseers. I was sitting in my kitchen and talking via Zoom. I could only see four members of Business Meeting at a time on my phone, and was not convinced that I had much of a sense of the Meeting. But I was going to have to report on our latest conversation about the word ‘overseer’.
