Men, Women & The Gospel - Q&A

· 42:53

|
In the final episode of the Men, Women & Gospel series, pastors Ashley Mathews and Isaiah DeVyldere respond to five questions submitted by listeners: 
  1. What is the relationship between this view of women leading in the church and human sexuality? 
  2. How were maleness and femaleness understood in Genesis? And should that inform how we understand it today? 
  3. What are the implications of Paul's call to mutual submission for marriages today? 
  4. Why were Paul's requirements for elders and deacons gender normative? Or were they? 
  5. If they were women leading in the early church after Pentecost, why do we not see a continuation of women leading in the church historically?

Biblical references:
  • Genesis 2
  • Ephesians 5:21
  • 1 Timothy 2:5,6, 3:4
