LadyRev, please give us the sciptures you are reading that says any of this. The woman is the head of the house? Really? And there are several 'heads' of the Church? Wow.

L&F, I thought you knew your Bible.
1Ti 5:14
I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children,
guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully.
guide the house:
1. to be master (or head) of a house
2. to rule a household, manage family affairs
That's according to the Strong's, and is only used in that verse.
As for the 'multiple heads' claim, do you disagree that a woman has her husband as well as God as her head? If not, that means she has two heads! Nothing wrong with that, but it is Biblical.
As for multiple heads in the church, that's absolutely Biblical. Paul never advocated a one-man-show when it came to church government.
Ac 14:23
And when they had ordained them elders in every church, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they believed.
Ac 20:17
And from Miletus he sent to Ephesus, and called the elders of the church.
Jas 5:14
Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:
Elders......not elder.
