Many sincere believers have a problem accepting and encouraging women in ministry leadership. They believe the Bible teaches against such equality with men. As proof-texts, they cite passages from 1 Corinthians, Ephesians, and 1 Timothy.
But is there a problem with that problem - and the way some have interpreted the so-called "problem" texts? In this booklet, you will hear three voices from among the many who believe that God fully endorses both men and women for leadership and ministry roles. Dr. Daniel A. Brown, and two young friends, both women-in-ministry-leadership, confront the question personally, so their voices are nuanced and compelling.
But beyond individual wrestlings, this booklet offers perspectives, from the whole of Scripture, that recast the "problem" texts within the affirming and empowering "good news" message to all people - men and women alike.
