Cheryl, somewhere recently on your site, you mentioned you might need to address the issue of ‘head’ within marriages in more depth. I think that would be extremely valuable since I have encountered-in my church search-a number of pastors who espouse egalitarian views of women in ministry but still cling to ‘man as king’ or leader-head within the marriage. They more typically have a definition of ‘man as head at home’ that can be summed up as ‘chief rubber stamper of big decisions’ but it is still oppression and still, I believe, from examining things, unbiblical. It still forces women to be spiritual and relational thumbsuckers-albeit the biggest and oldest thumbsuckers-in their marriage/family.
