As a woman serving in youth ministry, especially in a predominantly Korean church context, it's always encouraging to hear about how Jesus' ministry broke the cultural norm in regards to women and those marginalized. It does still perplex me why it wasn’t more clearly stated about how women should be welcomed to take on leadership roles and that it doesn’t go against “God’s creation” and the roles that he created. I also found it interesting the whole idea that church movements move at a greater pace when led by non-paid staff. It is definitely something to think about when building up church leadership.

How could that realization help our paid-staff churches?
