Why Men and Women are Equal to Serve
Should woman preach? That is a controversial question especially in Northern Ireland where many people think women should not in the pulpit or have authority over men, yet its ok for them to go to foreign countries to be missionaries and put themselves in dangerous positions to serve God and speak His work to both men and women, but it’s not ok for them to preach in our churches here!!
Trevor Morrow has written this book to address this issue as he feels that no matter what camp you are in, we need to fully read and understand the scriptures and realise that we are all equal in the eyes of Jesus and we should be the same within the church. Trevor says we all need to apply the gospel to the lives of women and men in different cultural contexts.
What I took from this book is that in the eyes of Jesus we are all equal and we should live that way and always see life from his point of view and not how we think things should be.
