Preaching is never less than the act of providing spiritual nourishment for God s hungry people. But oh, how it is so much more! Certainly, in part, preaching can be likened to a mother serving up dinner in the kitchen to her hungry children. But preaching is also a place to herald universal truths which would remain true had the preacher never been born.

00:00:00 All right, listen, guys, I get it.
00:00:01 Many of you are unable to financially support this ministry because you're spending your
00:00:05 cash and your lives on raising young children in the fear and admonition of the Lord.
00:00:10 Praise God for you and that endeavor.
00:00:13 However, algorithms are a thing.
00:00:16 Shadow banning, sadly, is a thing.
00:00:19 And one major way that you can help to expand the reach and effectiveness of this ministry
00:00:24 that doesn't cost you a dime is by spending just a few moments leaving us a five-star
00:00:29 review. Also, perhaps even more effective than that, you can share our podcast with a friend.
00:00:36 We hope you'll take the time to do so. Thank you so much. God bless.
00:00:43 I wrote something that I want to read. It has to do with whether or not a woman can preach, 1.00
00:00:49 and of course, whether or not a woman should preach. Are those things linked together? Is it 0.99
00:00:55 merely that a woman cannot, or I'm sorry, should not preach, but that she could preach, she's just 1.00
00:01:00 not allowed? Or do these things actually coincide, ability and allowance? So, I've written the 0.98
00:01:07 following. Complementarianism and antinomianism have this in common. They both subtly assert that
00:01:14 God's loving commands, duties, and roles are at least partially arbitrary by severing the
00:01:21 relationship between what God assigns from how God designs. They malign the character of God,
00:01:29 albeit perhaps unintentionally, as capricious. A woman should not preach because she cannot 1.00
00:01:37 preach. The fact that many complementarians believe a woman is able but merely not allowed 0.98
00:01:43 reveals a profound misunderstanding within even conservative churches regarding the nature of
00:01:50 men and women and the nature of preaching. Women nurture and give life. Many, even in the Reformed
00:01:58 camp, assume preaching is nothing more than providing spiritual nourishment, serving a
00:02:04 spiritual meal on the Lord's day. If so, why can't women do it? This confusion is compounded by the 1.00
00:02:12 failures of many male preachers. Many male pastors today sit on a stool next to a high-topped table
00:02:19 with a warm cup of coffee, flower arrangements, and a few Bible verses pulled up on their iPad.
00:02:25 They share instead of heralding. They feel instead of knowing. They think instead of believing.
00:02:32 But 1 Peter 4.11 says this,
00:02:35 Whoever speaks should do so as one who speaks the very oracles of God.
00:02:42 Preaching is not a place, therefore, to share our thoughts and feelings.
00:02:46 It is a place to herald universal truths which would remain true had the preacher never been born.
00:02:54 Yes, preaching is never less than the act of providing spiritual nourishment for God's hungry people.
00:03:00 But oh, how it is so much more!
00:03:04 Certainly, in part, preaching can be likened to a mother serving up dinner in the kitchen to her hungry children.
00:03:11 But preaching must also be likened to William Wallace riding with his sword down the front line, rallying the troops for war. 1.00
00:03:21 A woman should not do this because, indeed, she cannot. 0.99
00:03:26 For the record, podcasting is not preaching. 1.00
00:03:30 I know because I do both, albeit imperfectly.
00:03:33 Therefore, I have no intention of combating faithful sisters in Christ who utilize their podcast platforms well.
00:03:41 so long as they are not neglecting their chief role in their homes.
00:03:45 And because I am not omniscient,
00:03:47 I will assume that these faithful Christian women
00:03:50 are prioritizing precisely what God has called them to.
00:03:54 So, for any of you wondering,
00:03:56 there's my little piece on the issue of women not being allowed to preach
00:04:01 and the issue of women not being able to preach.
00:04:06 Thanks.
00:04:11 i wrote something that i want to read it has to do with whether or not a woman can preach
00:04:19 and of course whether or not a woman should preach are those things linked together is it
00:04:26 merely that a woman cannot or i'm sorry should not preach but that she could preach she's just
00:04:31 not allowed or do these things actually coincide ability and allowance so i've written the following
