This book will help you think about and answer the following question: Does the Bible teach us that women should be restricted from some areas of service and leadership in the church because of their gender OR does the Bible teach us women are called and gifted by God to serve and lead in the same way as men, without any restriction based on gender? How one answers this question will have profound implications for individuals, the church, and the world the church serves. Wherever you might be in your own spiritual journey, your connection with the church and your life experience around this question, Yes She Can will challenge and inspire you. This book offers an opportunity to: Gain clarity and move past some common mis-conceptions people have about this issue Think carefully about how to interpret the Bible Walk through portions of scripture that are especially relevant to the question at hand Be inspired by the beauty and hope found in the person of Jesus and his gospel Wrestle with some of the essential and practical realities that surround this question You may have never read a book on this topic or perhaps you have studied this in great detail.
