    In this concluding article of this title series, I want to focus on the ministries that are prohibited and the ministries that women can and should pursue.

I knew that you always hear me, but I have said this for the sake of the crowd standing here, so that they may believe that you sent me.” When he had said this, he cried with ...read more
