Send us Fan MailStrong Women Strong WorldWhataboutism | Part 10 Senior Pastor Keith StewartSeptember 14, 2025Step-by-step throughout this entire series, we’ve been laying the foundation for Biblical, female leadership. We’ve looked at the two most commonly cited Scriptures (1 Corinthians 14.34-35 and 1 Timothy 2.12) that have been used to prohibit women from teaching or leading in church. What followed were 8 of the best examples of women who did in fact teach and lead, explaining their stories with the same detail Scripture affords each of them. As we wrap up the series, we’re going to examine a handful of other Bible passages that are often misunderstood and misapplied as it relates to women in leadership. These messages have been an opportunity for us all to let Scripture speak for itself, sharpen our study skills and celebrate how God has used women and men throughout history for His kingdom purposes. _______________ 1. At the close of the series, Pastor Keith addressed some of the other more frequently asked questions regarding women in leadership? Have you ever been asked any of these questions? Which questions challenged you most? Would you answer any of these questions in a different way? 2. To be able answer objections to our faith, we need to be good students of the Word. In 2 Timothy 2.15 (New Living Translation), Paul reminded Timothy, “Work hard so you can present yourself to God and receive his approval. Be a good worker, one who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly explains the word of truth.” How do we become better students of the Bible? How do we find answers to questions we’re asked? What resources have you found most helpful? 3. Christianity, especially in its earliest days, enjoyed tremendous popularity with women. Many had never heard or experienced such a liberating message. To this day, women still make up the majority of professed Christians. What do you think draws women to the faith? Do you think the Church (as in the universal church or as it exists in the USA) is still valuing women like they were in the New Testament or are things changing? What has been your experience in church as a woman? 4. What impact, if any, has this message or series had on you personally? Do you feel better equipped to address the question of female leadership in the Bible? Which messages stood out to you most and why?
