In this Theology Lab conversation, historian and theologian Beth Allison Barr explores the Bible, women, and the role of women pastors in the church. She examines what it means to read the contested passage, 1 Timothy 2:11-12, in light of the larger context of the Bible and what Paul says about Scripture. Relevant to both ministry and leadership in the church while also raising important questions about how we might engage the diversity of the Bible.
Perfect for non-expert Christians, curious believers, and anyone still in the church wrestling with big theological questions, this video offers a thoughtful, nuanced approach to reading the Bible and engaging with gender and leadership in a faithful way.
