This question will definitely grab some attention. Is the role of a pastor just for men? Can women preach? What does it mean for a wife to submit to her husband? When it comes to these tough questions, they actually have a simple answer that makes sense from a biblical perspective.

Why is this so sensitive to talk about? God created men and women differently on purpose. God honors, values, and uses the roles of men and women for His glory! One is not more important or valued more than the other. Both roles are needed and valued by God. What are these roles and what do they look like in the church and home? Join us for this study and let's see what God's Word says!
