Owa Tafoo Lameye
Say it out loud quickly. This weekend I drafted a nine post series on 1st Timothy 2:12-15. Now say it again. Owa Tafoo Lameye. Unless… maybe I can show all my personal cards before I get into the business. Be gentle with me. Here goes…
On paper, I’m probably somewhere between a ‘comp’ and an ‘egal’. I’m not really sure. I was raised with traditional ideas of husbandry and responsibility, but in real life, I’m a pragmatic egalitarian. To me, it’s real simple – both in church and in marriage. If a sister in Christ wants to and can do something that helps in the body, or in the family, we absolutely should want her to do it, especially if she does it well! (I feel the same way about brothers. We shouldn’t generalize. We should specialize. Most of all, we should all get our exercise!)
