Should they exercise authority over men? What about ordaining women?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEven those who agree that Scripture must determine our answers do not agree on what it teaches. And too often differing sides havenot been willing to listen to one another. This Spectrum Multiview volume shares the views of four deeply committed evangelicals that focus the discussion on the issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRobert Culver argues for what might be called the traditional view that women should not exercise authority over or teach men. Susan Foh suggests a modified view which would allow for women to teach but not to hold positions of authority. Walter Liefeld presents a case for plural ministry that questions ordination as a means of conferring authority. Alvera Mickelsen defends the full equality of men and women in the church. What makes this book especially helpful is that the writers all respond to the other essays, pointing out weaknesses and hidden assumptions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpectrum Multiview Books offer a range of viewpoints on contested topics within Christianity, giving contributors the opportunity to present their position and also respond to others in this dynamic publishing format.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere in one volume are the views of four deeply committed evangelicals that focus the discussion on the issue of the role women should play, if any, in ministry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRobert G.
