Mike's tentative position: teaching allowed if it doesn't carry eldership authority; real-life examples balance rules

Women Leaders in the New Testament: Women in Ministry part 4 00:57:09 – 00:58:41

Mike begins articulating his personal landing point.

Mike will softly land on the position that teaching is allowed as long as it doesn't carry with it the eldership role; how institutionalized the teaching is matters. He argues God gives us both the rules and real-life examples (like Priscilla) so we don't turn rules into Pharisaical sabbath-like over-regulation. Some are so worried about violating male-female roles they create extra policies that unnecessarily limit women in ministry.
