Bible Question (short): divorce and deacons and pastors?

Question (full): Hey you all let me start of by asking about can a man be divorced and be a deacon or a pastor? and i know that the references to scripture in 1 timothy 3:2 and it says husband to one wife which in greek means "mias gunaikos andra" ok i have heard the debates etc but if a man marries and is divorce and has not been remarried over 23 years that means he is still a husband of one wife. but also it says not to be divorced some people believe. 1 corinthians 7:8 talks about staying single. So my question is if a man is divorced and not remarried be able to be a deacon or pastor? Please keep the answers biblical and scriptual for i only seek the truth in this matter. but according to the greek translation of the word "husband to one wife"
