Do women belong in the pulpit, or is this a role reserved for men? Join us as we tackle this provocative question and explore the complex subject of women pastors in Christianity. This episode was inspired by a spirited social media debate, prompting us to examine biblical perspectives on gender roles within church leadership. Our commitment is to God's word, even when it goes against societal norms.

Finally, we broaden the discussion to consider the traditional roles and responsibilities of men and women as portrayed in the Bible. Reflecting on the story of Adam and Eve, we stress the significance of men as protectors and providers, while recognizing the indispensable role of women as supporters in maintaining balance and order. Through engaging analogies and thought-provoking insights, we invite listeners to consider the divine instructions provided in scripture and the consequences of straying from these roles.
