Although tradition, experience, and practice, have often excluded women in light of certain passages attributed to Paul, he commended women who served as leaders in the church and often relied on them ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,267 views

Far too often when we think ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,515 views
