Articles ARTICLES ON WOMEN IN MINISTRYWomen in Ministry and Marriage by Wendy Francisco. Part of the reason for the increased divorce rate among Christians can be placed at the feet of misunderstandings and mistranslations resulting in gender hierarchy which damages people, marriages, and the Body at large. This article looks at Ephesians 5 to highlight how Scripture can be mistranslated and incorrectly taught. Just Say 'No' To Psycho-Babble by Leslie Johnson with Gary Johnson. Here is an excellent short article encouraging the people of God to judge by the Word rather than "pop-psychology theories and mindless suppositions regarding gender tendencies." Leslie is the author of Does God Really Prefer Men. Women Arising Now by Chuck Pierce. This article is Chapter Nine of his book The Future War of the Church. In this is a prophetic word for women, he proclaims that "despite the enemy's efforts to oppress and seduce women, we are about to see women of the Church arise and influence the world in a way they have never done before!" Remember Maria by Mary ScantlinAs she worked on her certification to teach Dr. Susan Hyatt’s course, The Spirit, The Bible and Women, she became aware of the many women who had tremendous ministries but were seldom mentioned in church history. Her article on Maria Woodworth-Etter brings at least one of these unknown warriors to our attention. She believes that knowing of those who have gone before will encourage women to act on the call that God has on their lives. Empirical Data in Support of Egalitarian Marriages and A Fresh Perspective on Submission and Authority by Dennis J. Preato. Groundbreaking material that calls on the church to look at the positive data on the egalitarian marriage as opposed to the traditional male headship structure. Included is a look at the biblical meaning of the word translated submission. Don't miss this one, it's fantastic.
Holy America , Phoebe! by Chris Armstrong. It
swept across church lines, transforming America's urban landscape with its
rescue missions and storefront churches. Yet today, the "holiness movement" and
its charismatic woman leader are all but forgotten. This article on Phoebe
Palmer is found on Christianity Today's website and is well worth your time. Women Pastors, Wifely Submission and Southern Baptists
by Barbara Collins. This article from the Summer 2000 newsletter addresses the
Southern Baptist statement excluding women pastors and calling on women to
submit to the "servant leadership" of their husbands. A Challenge for Proponents of
Female Subordination To Prove Their Case from The Bible by Dr. Gilbert
Bilezikian. Dr. Bilezikian issues a challenge to prompt Christians to grapple
with biblical facts rather than to accept traditional assumptions about female
roles. This article is a "must read." |
