Summary: Reminding us that there are over 100 passages in the bible that address, affirm, and bless women in ministry, Catherine Kroeger discusses not only the case of Deborah the Judge, the roles of women as prophets, and women in the New Testament but also address many of the more tricky biblical passages relating to women. The talk is rich in its discussion of the pertinent texts, Israelite history, theology, and practical life experience, and is informative for both men and women who seek to follow Christ or have questions about the place of women in God’s creation.
