Summary of how far to extend the boundaries: marriage, ministry, and rest of life

Everything Women Can and Can't Do According to the Bible: Women in Ministry part 13 04:06:09 – 04:07:40

Mike provides a concise summary of application in all three spheres.

In marriage: men aren't the only authority, just the higher authority. Women have authority over children, the household, and husband's body. In ministry: the limit extends to anything functioning as an elder in teaching and authority. Women should be encouraged in everything that isn't that. In rest of life: less strict — positive stereotypes intact, but no hard rules. Both have authority but his is higher, with self-sacrifice. If marriage and ministry are intact, the rest works itself out.
