Women in Church Leadership: Asking the Right Questions with Lisa Hensley (Pt. 1)

September 23, 2021 • Emily Bain & Bethany Parr • Season 4 • Episode 118

Whether you’re complementarian or egalitarian, asking the right questions about women in church leadership roles is important. Lisa Hensley joins us to discuss some of the most common objections to women in leadership positions, including “Adam was made first,” “Women are more emotional,” and “What about Eve being deceived?” Lisa also explains why the eternal subordination of the Son (ESS) heresy is dangerous & how it’s linked to hyper-complementarianism, as well as whether husbands will have to answer for their wives on Judgment Day and what this means for women.
