#12 - "The Role of Women in Ministry": Mike Mazzalongo

The document discusses the role of women in church ministry. It presents 4 main arguments: 1) the cultural argument that certain Bible passages restrict women's roles, 2) the Phoebe argument that she was a servant or messenger in the church, 3) the equal argument that men and women have equal value but different roles, and 4) the example argument that women can fulfill roles of love, teaching, mentoring, support, evangelism, hospitality, and service. It encourages women to accept their ministry roles with grace and humility and to exercise existing opportunities for ministry.
