Spirit of the Eagle

If it were not for that one verse in that one book of the Bible, I don’t think there would be any issue as to whether or not women can be called to be pastors of the church.

Here you have one view where it states that women can be called ot be pastors: (Bible.com) and one that states women CANNOT be pastors mostly due to the one verse in the Bible (Carm.org).

I have personally been vexed by this question for longer than I care to admit. I know what God has called me to do, so I cannot speak for everyone else’s experience with the Lord. I would love to hear thoughts on this. There are convincing articles that go either way. The Holy Spirit has never impressed upon me that I should not speak or teach (ahem I did not say I was called to pastor FTR). I have always been called to open my big mouth and say what He would have me to say. As for pastors/elders and whatnot, I am still waiting for God to speak. In the mean time, what do YOU believe?
