Today, how is at least as important as what and why.
What we are talking about:
Is it helpful and God-honoring to have women preach in our weekend gatherings?
In essentials, unity.
In opinions, liberty.
In all things, love.
We are a people who:
- Are willing to take questions to scripture again and again.
- Are not in a hurry.
- Listen to God together in scripture.
Is it helpful and God-honoring to have women preach in our weekend gatherings?

Zoom out -> immediate context.
Zoom out again -> further context.
Zoom in -> language matters.
Culture matters.
“It is necessary for Christians to challenge their culture where it departs from Kingdom values; it is equally necessary for them to identify with their culture on all other values.” - William Webb
When we are having trouble, we do the work together.
- Acknowledge our starting point
- Context near and far
- Language – original and translations
- Culture – then and now
- Other Scripture
- Redemption Narrative
- Scholarly work
We want what God wants. Nothing more. Nothing less. Nothing else.
