Many people have asked whether Christianity is oppressive to women based on the way that women have often been marginalized and overlooked throughout history. In this sermon, pastor Luke provided the biblical-theological and practical reasons why the Vineyard believes women can serve in leadership roles within the church. Building on a robust look at the whole of Scripture and engaging in a strong look at the culture surrounding the text of Scripture most often used to keep women from leadership, this talk provoked a lot of great discussion!
