Jesus, justiça e papéis de gênero: Mulheres no minsitério by Kathy Keller
5.0
4.5 stars rounded up
There were a few spots (particularly in confronting the concerns of more theologically liberal Christians) where Kathy comes across to me as a bit harsh even though I generally agreed with her viewpoint.
Besides that though, Kathy draws on Scripture and the perspectives of other faithful theologians like Elisabeth Elliot and C.S. Lewis to make a case for encouraging the God-given gifts of women in the church — outside of ordained ministry roles allowing for authoritative teaching, which she believes should be limited to men (and I would say her reasoning made sense biblically). Overall, this short booklet helped clarify some of the confusion I had regarding what roles Scripture permits women to take on in the local church.
