The instructor is knowledgeable, very presentable, and articulate. The series presents serious biblical exegesis and research on a number of texts that are often quoted as evidence that women\u2019s roles and opportunities in ministry are limited. Taken all together I find this series to be very relevant and helpful and therefore cannot be passed off lightly\u2026.This series can go a long way to giving women the freedom to pursue ministry as God calls them and to answer the concern and questions of others.<\/p>\n<p>I can recommend MM Outreach ministries and would be privileged to do so.<\/p>\n<p>-Rev. Robert Guthrie, B.Th. M.A. Instructor in Biblical Studies and Church History Vanguard College, Edmonton, Alberta<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p>In a world where many secular societies have seen the equality and value of women in leadership roles, too often religions have been slow to make the same transition. Biblically, Christ \u201ctore down the middle wall of partition\u201d that separated men and women, yet still, many Christian denominations and organizations maintain an error-filled perspective concerning women in ministry. As \u201cWomen in Ministry Silenced or Set Free?\u201d clearly exposes the truth of God\u2019s word, each individual who wants balanced instruction in this vital area of teaching will discover that God\u2019s word is not vague nor is it indifferent about the role of women and their God-given ministries.<\/p>\n<p>Those who have felt confused or restrained will find instead great freedom and a sound stance that upholds truth and extends endorsement for all women who choose to serve Christ in leadership and teaching roles.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026(the) series was well-prepared and with good documentation! Well done!<\/p>\n<p>-Pastor Wayne McNeilly\/Evangel Pentecostal Assembly, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p>The story of creation tells us that both man and woman were made in the image of God. All people are given intrinsic value in the miraculous act of creation, and all people are loved passionately by God, regardless of gender, race, age, education, economics, etc. However, though men and women are equal in value and purpose in God\u2019s eyes, there are passages in the Bible that raise the question of whether or not God limits the roles that are available to women in a local church family. Women in Ministry: Silenced or Set Free examines this question in a thoughtful and persuasive way. Through clear, concise teaching and multimedia, this series provides an excellent presentation of the arguments in favor of a woman\u2019s freedom to serve in all roles of Christian leadership according to God\u2019s leading. Though I disagree with the theological conclusions of this series at several points, I found the series very helpful in understanding the issues involved from a different perspective. Without a doubt, the presentation is offered with tremendous respect, integrity, and grace.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Scott Heine, Compass Church, Goodyear, Arizona<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Women in Ministry is a well-researched, well-presented series on the role of women in the church today. Cheryl Schatz has done her homework in a very thorough and thought-provoking manner. She brings to our attention the pertinent scriptural teaching that helps us see the freedom women are given by the Lord for leadership in the church and the exercise of their God-given spiritual gifts.<\/p>\n<p>The material is presented in an engaging format. From the very beginning the viewer is drawn in with excellent graphics and video clips. Cheryl is a gifted Bible teacher.<\/p>\n<p>This series is a must-see for those who seriously want to know what the Bible teaches on the role of women in the church today.<\/p>\n<p>Rev.
