Tune in an find out about the ongoing investigation into the “matter.” The Hammer Podcast Ep. 35 Jesus, the Man of Sorrows? In this episode, Pastor Mike talks about Isaiah 53.

In this episode Mike talks about what the Bible says regarding women pastors. Why is this such a hot button issue? Why is submission considered a bad word in the culture and even the church?

What about those who say this is the only place in scripture that teaches this? What are some of the other biblical arguments people try to use in favor of women preaching or teaching in church and women being pastors or elders? Why does N. T. Wright use the argument that woman were the first to see the resurrected Jesus as grounds for them being pastors?
