Women Who Ministered in the Bible
If Christians were meant to be against women in ministry, we would have to denounce and ignore all of the women who were examples throughout the Bible. Both the Old and New Testaments give clear examples for us (and this list is not exhaustive):
Lydia | Women in the Bible
The fact that where Paul expected to find a place of worship, he found a group of women, suggests that there were not enough Jewish men in Philippi to establish a synagogue (as women would not have been allowed in Judaism to establish one themselves).
Phoebe & Junia | Women in the Bible
We’re going to talk about two more women who are mentioned by Paul in Romans 16. Phoebe the Deacon, and Junia the Apostle.
Priscilla | Women in the Bible
Bold in her faith, Priscilla and Aquila had been cast out of Rome for their beliefs. Paul wrote that not only were they “coworkers in Christ Jesus” but that hey had “risked their own necks for his life” (Rm 16:3-4), at a time when persecution was a very present reality.
JAEL | Women in the Bible

Gender Accurate Bible Translations
Prompted by a discussion the other day over on instagram concerning women in ministry, when I encouraged people to get a gender-accurate translation of the bible, a few of you reached out, asking which versions are gender-accurate. Here are some translations that are more accurate when it comes to the pronouns used, according to theContinue reading “Gender Accurate Bible Translations”
Women Are Not the Second Class Creation
I don’t ever want to make this page about me as a person or “personality.” That will never be my goal. However, when I hear issues or see issues I also don’t want to shy away from addressing them. This is a photo of me preaching a few days ago. I realize that this aloneContinue reading “Women Are Not the Second Class Creation”
