Send us a textWhat Are The Women Supposed To Do? is a survey of 2 books by Beth Allison Barr. The Making of Biblical Womanhood: How the Subjugation of Women Became Gospel Truth - BrazosPress/Baker Publishing. ©2021Becoming the Pastor’s Wife: how marriage replaced ordination as a woman’s path to ministry - Brazo’s Press, Baker. © 2025Tony, Sandy, and Micah talk about women in church leadership in this survey.Stories of the rise of women can distract us from the place of women in culture and in the church, including during New Testament times. We may be inclined to think this is somehow a recent aberration of culture or the church. This is a total misconception that it’s only in recent times - the last 60 years - that women are being “allowed” into church leadership. The complaint against churches with women in leadership is that the church is copying culture. Our survey of these books introduces our listeners to Beth Allison Barr, a professor of Medieval history at Baylor University in Texas. Her books provide important and unique insight to this issue.Passages include:Genesis 12:7, 15:1; Galatians 3:16; Romans 16:1-7;& Hebrews 13:17.Support the showTonyKafka on Patreon
