Women’s Role In The Church | FEAT. Marilynn Mitchell

🎧 Happy TRUTH Tuesday! Welcome back for Season Two! You definitely won't be disappointed.

 

🔥 Does the Bible preach women are lesser than men? What does it say about submissiveness?

In this episode of "I Reckon That's The Truth," Kate & Maggie tackle a series of difficult questions society often doesn't like the answer to, with their guest Marilynn Mitchell: Can women be pastors? Where is their place in the church? In a marriage? According to the Bible, are women made less than men? Join us as Marilynn explains these truths biblically through scripture. Whether you’re a skeptic, a believer, or somewhere in between, this conversation is sure to challenge your perspective and spark deep reflection.

 

🗣️ "All believers are called to ministry. It has nothing to do with male, female, Jew, Greek...all the things Paul talks about. As believers we are called to share our faith.” - Marilynn Mitchell [19:28]

 

🎙️ Featured Guest:

Marilynn Mitchell is in the hot seat for this episode! Along with being a dear friend and mentor to us, she is very accomplished in her career. She has a BSBM in Business Management and has worked full-time for Newell Brands for twenty-one years as a Senior Program Manager in Global IT. In her words, and according to others close to her, she is always "available." This led her to teach and lead Bible studies for the past twenty years plus, and led her to the position where she currently serves as the Women's Ministry Director at New Vision's Buchanan campus (since 2018). Marilynn is a truth-teller and hears from God clearly, and tells others without hesitation. She does absolutely nothing without confronting the Lord first! We couldn't be more grateful to have her on for this episode!
