Women & Ministry - Great Resources from 9marks.org

Women and ministry is a sensitive topic in today's church and whenever I find a biblical and helpful resource on the topic, I like to share it due to help others consider the biblical guidance on these issues.

Here are two well-written articles on women and ministry from http://www.9marks.org/ (a website on biblical guidance for churches).  If you've ever struggled with or gotten riled up about this topic, I'd encourage you to read the below articles and the Scriptures they reference.
Also HERE is a link to their July/August 2010 journal that includes a multitude of other great articles in the below categories:
  • PASTORING WOMEN: UNDERSTANDING AND HONORING DISTINCTNESS
  • WOMEN’S MINISTRY IN THE LOCAL CHURCH
  • RESOURCES FOR TODAY’S BIBLICAL WOMEN
Finally, the Council on Biblical Manhood & Womanhood (http://www.cbmw.org/) is the best website that handles this issue comprehensively and Biblically.

Titus 2:3-5 "Older women likewise are to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers or slaves to much wine. They are to teach what is good, 4and so train the young women to love their husbands and children, 5to be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled"

1 Timothy 2:12-14 " I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet. 13For Adam was formed first, then Eve 14and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor.

2 Timothy 1:5 "I am reminded of your sincere faith, a faith that dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice and now, I am sure, dwells in you as well."

Genesis 2:18 "Then the LORD God said, "It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him."
