Women in ministry is a secondary issue — not about the gospel or salvation — but tensions are extremely high because of these pre-biblical mistakes.

Mike will address seven huge mistakes people make that prevent biblical thinking on women in ministry.

Definition of complementarianism: women and men are equal in value but have different roles, particularly that women should not serve as elders.

Definition of egalitarianism: equality in both personhood and role, with no limits on what women can do in the church including serving as elders.

Mistake #2: Believing women in ministry is simply a result of the evils of feminism.

Mistake #2: Evils of feminism

Mike Winger idea 2022-03-07

Mistake #3: Believing it is the 'evils of patriarchy' that must be fought — egalitarians who frame complementarians as patriarchalists use privilege/power language to bypass scripture.

Rebuttal: women's submission is not permanent — it is limited to this life, and Christians should not view this life as their permanent state. Most Christians permanently submit to elders anyway.
