Throughout the history of the church there have been a variety of views concerning the role of women in public ministry. Some contend that in light of Paul’s words in Galatians and Ephesians along with examples in the New Testament narrative it is clear women should be allowed participation in any ministry open to men.

Moreover, there is the insistence that the public teaching ...

And so women may yet follow Christ and minister to him. He still comes to our doors for bread. He asks yet for a cup of cold water at the hands of love. Gentle ...
