A veces se escucha que no es bíblico que las mujeres estén en el ministerio y en el liderazgo. Muy por el contrario, las mujeres desempeñan en las Escrituras los mismos roles que los hombres, excepto uno, y Jesús es el único que verdaderamente lo ha cumplido. Únase a mí en un recorrido por las Escrituras mientras conocemos a Débora, la jueza, profetisa y líder suprema de Israel. Nos encontraremos con Hulda, a quien el sumo sacerdote necesitaba para ordenarle las Escrituras. Nos encontraremos con Priscila, quien instruyó a Apolos en la fe, Junia, la apóstol de Jesús, y Febe, ...

You can be young, passionate about Jesus Christ, surrounded by diversity, engaged in a postmodern world, and reared in evangelicalism and not be an emergent Christian. In fact I want to argue that it would be better if you weren't. The Emergent Church is a strong voice in today's Christian community. And they're talking about good things: caring for the poor, peace for all men, loving Jesus. They're doing church a new way, not content to fit the mold. Again, all good. But there's more to the movement than that.

Let the gospel of Jesus and the example of Jesus motivate you to serve your church sacrificially.

This small book has two main themes. The first is the argument that Scripture requires ministers in the church to be men - that is, they must be male. The second theme addresses the reason why this has become an issue at all (when the texts are so plain) and will argue that ministers in the Christian church must be more than male - that is, they must be vertebrates. The ministry calls for men in both senses of that word.

The common, normal solutions to navigating life are focused on strengths, gifts, and passion. The reality is quite contrarian to what seems to make sense. The revelations is found in the divine fingerprints of all that we are: our life story, what energized and de-energizes us, our rhythms, and even our pain and weaknesses. It's a different way of approaching clarity of life.
