Women in Ministry

Mara and I were talking about women in ministry on Sunday and I promised her I'd find LT's post Why I think women should be church leaders. I thought his take on 1 Tim 2: "I permit no woman to teach or have authority over a man" to quite insightfull.

Well just off the top of my head, Nuns come to mind. There is a wide range of models and some with fancy names that I don't remeber.

When I was in Virginia it seemed to be commonly held that women could teach children and other women but not men. They could be leaders they just couldn't preach to the congregation or any other group that would have men in it.
