In the final episode of the Men, Women & Gospel series, pastors Ashley Mathews and Isaiah DeVyldere respond to five questions submitted by listeners:
- What is the relationship between this view of women leading in the church and human sexuality?
- How were maleness and femaleness understood in Genesis? And should that inform how we understand it today?
- What are the implications of Paul's call to mutual submission for marriages today?
- Why were Paul's requirements for elders and deacons gender normative? Or were they?
- 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?
