The double binds of denominational leadership or episcope' are at least three. Double binds occur when one is internally conflicted and not able to turn any direction without negative consequences. For episcope' one double bind is absence of a shared authority. Another is the presence of a divided constituency. The third is the absence of a sense of God or the holy purpose for the work. While based in an analysis of my seven years as Area Minister in the Massachusetts Conference of the United Church of Christ, this study addresses the trans-denominational concerns of episcope' and points to directions beyond the double binds.
