GENDERED MINISTRY--draft claim & evidences

Reflections after the readings for Gender Theology in Life and Ministry at Talbot

Claim: Humanity is gendered by creational intent and, by this same design, men and women must lead together for proper human functioning. The concept of male leadership (banning women in varying degrees) is based on an interpretation of Scripture that is filtered through the presupposition of male leadership, with seeming disregard for the overwhelming prevalence of unity and mutuality. On first glance, this seems to be circular reasoning.

Evidences:
  • In the NT all disciples are siblings.
  • In the NT all disciples can be prophets.
  • In the NT all disciples are priests.
