For 2000 years, churches have rejected women in ministry. We've failed to value their gifts! We've argued "complimentarianism," a non-Biblical idea that God created women as "separate but equal." To the extent that the church has behaved in this way, we have dishonored Jesus. In John 4, Jesus welcomes a Samaritan woman, and because of His embrace, she evangelizes her whole town (while the make disciples are grocery shopping)!
