Conclusion 9: John Piper's over-extension of the restriction is wrong

ALL The Debates Over 1 Tim 2_11-15: Women in Ministry part 12 (it took me a year to make this) 11:09:35 – 11:10:05

Mike critiques Piper's extreme application where even giving a man directions requires special deference.

John Piper has suggested that even something like a woman giving a man driving directions should be done in a way that honors role differences. Mike calls this 'hogwash' and compares it to the Pharisees drawing out the application of God's commands far beyond their intended scope. The restriction is about the specific elder/teaching authority role in the church — it does not extend to every possible interaction between men and women.
