On this episode of Salty Believer Unscripted, Josiah Walker opened the episode with a frustrated question about why the Church is confused by the role of Pastor, women in ministry, offices in the Church, and why the Church seems so broken today. If not the Church as a whole, at least the Church in American seems broken. And if not the Church in American, certainly in the Southern Baptist Convention is confused.

What is the role of women in the Church, ministry, and leadership? What is an Elder? What is a Deacon? What does the Bible say about all of it and why does tradition have so much influence in this area? Is it time for another reformation?
