@LauraRbnsn Yikes! Since we've been married, my wife has always made her own medical decisions. I see no valid reason a woman should have to sneak and get such a commonplace procedure.

I wrote my capstone research thesis on the early church views on violence. My emphasis was on military service, but I was surprised to see, for the first 400 years, the church was unanimously opposed to all violence, including military and legal executions.

I had a pastor I highly respect once tell me, on issues where he is not 100% certain, he'd rather err on the side of grace. If I had any remaining doubts about women in ministry, I'd support them for that reason alone.

What if egalitarians are wrong? “Whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed, and in this I rejoice” (Phili 1:18) What if complementarians are wrong? Half of God’s Church has been unjustly silenced and prohibited from “living a life worthy of their calling” (Eph 4:1)

@ZachWLambert What gets me is when women are allowed to lead children, but not adults, with the justification women are more easily deceived. But with that assumption, children should be completely off-limits. In reality, though, it has nothing to do with what's Biblical. It's about power.
