“For women who have had men “pull rank” on them and hold them down to restrict their ability to serve their only Master, the Lord Jesus, the pain is very real. Hierarchy can bring great harm to a woman inside her very soul and cause her to lose her sense of trust. Sadly a woman may even transfer the actions of these men who are practicing hierarchy, to the nature of God that they are said to represent. God now can become “like” the men to her and this can harm her trust in God.”

This is very true. One of the first things a woman has to do is actually find out who God is and stop listening to men trying to tell her who God is. She must search the scriptures and find His true nature for herself.

One part of the parable of the talents that not everyone sees is the part where the servant with one talent said he buried his talent because he knew the master to be a hard man, reaping where he didn’t sow.
This is a lie. If the master wanted to reap where he did not sow, he would not have handed out 5, 2, or 1 talent(s) respectively. He would have given them nothing and expected them to produce something out of nothing if he thought he could reap where he did not sow.
The servant believed a lie about him. And believed that he was a hard man.

In the same way, women believe lies about God because of what they have been taught. They have been taught the doctrines of men which are very restricting and these women believe God is that restrictive, as well.
And so women bury their talents.
And they are going to be very surprised when God calls them into account.
