This series explores Paul's vision for how women fit into the announcement that Jesus is Lord. It argues that Paul was an egalitarian, believing that women should be included (without distinction) in leadership roles within the church and home. Paul did not believe that women were "the same" as men, but that they equally offer gifts to the community as leaders, teachers, pastors, bishops, etc. This series will demonstrate why Paul was pro-women.Join the Paulcast Revolution: Give Via PatreonAlso, this episode is the launch of the Paulcast Patreon online tip-jar (think Kickstarter for ongoing content creators).
