“She who kneels before God, can stand before anyone.” – author unknown

Last night I had dinner with my dad. He is an amazing man…

Being a woman called to study the things of God, and bent on pursuing justice, it was inevitable I would take up the debate on women as leaders in the church. 

It has been a long conversation between my dad and I, over many dinners and in many car rides.

In doing research for the book he is writing he happened upon this quote and presented it to me yesterday as the nail that finally drove in his decision to believe that yes, women may be lead pastors. 

Thanks dad. For your love, for your devotion to God, to truth, to your family, and to the deep things in life. You are my hero!  You make this saying true, “behind every great woman, there is an even greater man!” :)

May my life bring honor to you in your “old age!” haha! JK. wink.
