289 – What can you learn from women leaders at church?

What is your response to some Christians who insist that women should not be in any leadership roles in church?

This is more prevalent than you may be aware of. And these folks quote a few Bible passages, sometimes way out of context to support their convictions.

But the Bible is full of women who were in leadership roles, both in the Old and New Testaments. 

In this week's episode, we’re going to look specifically at Miriam and explore how she used her God-appointed role to lead and bless others.

  • She saw an opportunity to minister to others in a way no one else could
  • She didn't ask permission, she acted
  • She had to learn not to compare her leadership role with anyone else's
  • She learned to focus on her purpose no matter what

Just as Miriam discovered, who you are and what you are capable of are gifts from God. These are your superpowers.  

How will you use them to glorify God and encourage others to do the same?
