Many people perceive the Bible as being sexist, patriarchal and biased towards women. The reason for this is because the Bible clearly teaches that women cannot be preachers or elders in churches. From a distance the accusation seems to be legit.
But in this podcast the texts are evaluated further, justified and explained. Just like men have the responsibility to lead their families, so men have the responsibility to lead the family of God (church). This command of God doesn't devalue the role of women at all, but sets them free to fulfil their own God given responsibility to nurture.
Does this mean women cannot lead or teach? Not at all. This episode also explores the life of the most noble women in the Bible. We see a woman that takes care of her family, runs a few businesses, leads and teaches, yet she doesn't represent her family at the city gate where the elders meet.
