In Christianity, bishops are normally responsible for the governance of dioceses. The role or office of bishop is called episcopacy.

The bishops are by doctrine understood as those who possess the full priesthood given by Jesus Christ, and therefore may ordain other clergy, including other bishops. A person ordained as a deacon, priest (i.e. presbyter), and then bishop is understood to hold the fullness of the ministerial priesthood, given responsibilit ...
