God is still calling women to function in the Kingdom. Have you ever felt as if God was calling you but you were not sure? Many women have expressed a desire to be used by God but are not sure in what capacity they can serve. Some churches have excluded women from functioning in ministry. The Apostle Paul writes in 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 “Women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the law say. If they want to inquire about something, they should ask their own husbands at home; for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church.” (NIV) But Paul also writes in 1 Corinthians 11:5 “But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, it is the same as having her head shaved.” (NIV) Women were obviously allowed to pray and prophesy in the Christian gathering because otherwise it would have been no need for Paul to give instruction concerning this matter. In my new book “A Woman’s Call” I delve into this much debated issue, Are Women called to function in ministry?
