Reason #5: The Church Represses Women
Show Notes

Culture has made big strides in recognizing and valuing women.  Yet, within the church, people see certain doors that are only open to men.  And for some people—both men and women—this is a big reason that they’re done with church. Pastor Dave Gustavsen and Heather Horn address these issues in "Reason #5: The Church Represses Women."

The following books are recommended by Heather Horn and Pastor Dave. Some of these books present a “complementarian” position (meaning that men and women complement one another by playing different roles in church leadership), which is the view held by The Chapel. Others present an “egalitarian” position (meaning that there is no distinction between the roles of men and women in the church). As always, we recommend becoming familiar with various viewpoints, prayerfully and thoughtfully deciding which one best represents the teaching of Scripture.
