Church Hierarchs

Church hierarchy refers to the organized ranks of leadership within a Christian church, guiding spiritual, doctrinal, and administrative matters. Typically, it includes clergy such as bishops, priests or pastors, and deacons, each with specific roles and responsibilities. Bishops oversee dioceses or regions, ensuring doctrinal unity and church discipline. Priests or pastors serve local congregations, providing spiritual guidance and conducting services. Deacons assist in service-oriented tasks. The hierarchy varies among denominations, but generally, it ensures structured leadership, doctrinal consistency, and effective ministry within the church community.
