I didn't always feel that way toward women in ministry, or theological students, teachers, etc., but through a more throrough study of Scripture I have found the study of God to be something to be celebrated by every professing believer.  What a privilege to learn the mysteries of His Word as women!&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;We should not ever take these opportunities for granted.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5347107000995359188/7203494723462088506/comments/default/8379023870809120056'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5347107000995359188/7203494723462088506/comments/default/8379023870809120056'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.whitbyforum.com/2009/01/surge.html?showComment=1233305220000#c8379023870809120056' title=''/><author><name>Kathleen</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01181438211658110880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://bp2.blogger.com/_F4bybC6f7OM/R7pn9gPQVPI/AAAAAAAAAAM/4TAmYvRnI9g/S220/Copy+of+Merry+Kathleen+Christmas+2007.jpg'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.whitbyforum.com/2009/01/surge.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5347107000995359188.post-7203494723462088506' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5347107000995359188/posts/default/7203494723462088506' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-2093669715'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5347107000995359188.post-2113122734084814668</id><published>2009-01-28T18:40:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2009-01-28T18:40:00.000-05:00</updated><title type='text'>I just wanted to contact you and say THANK YOU for...</title><content type='html'>I just wanted to contact you and say THANK YOU for this whole ministry, from the bottom of my heart.  This is an answer and incredible comfort to me, from God, more than you could even imagine.  I'm a young woman and deeply believe that I am called to attend seminary; to learn, teach, and write about theology.  However, I have really struggled with the biblical basis for women in ministry (or the prohibition thereof).  So this ministry is an INCREDIBLE God-send to me.  It affirms my calling and value to the Kingdom, and even to God.  If ever you wonder if you are touching lives, know that you've touched mine. This forum comforts me and encourages me to pursue what I believe God has called me to do.  Thank you, a million times!!!&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;-Kristen</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5347107000995359188/7203494723462088506/comments/default/2113122734084814668'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5347107000995359188/7203494723462088506/comments/default/2113122734084814668'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.whitbyforum.com/2009/01/surge.html?showComment=1233186000000#c2113122734084814668' title=''/><author><name>Kristen</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img1.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.whitbyforum.com/2009/01/surge.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5347107000995359188.post-7203494723462088506' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5347107000995359188/posts/default/7203494723462088506' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-1603277527'/></entry></feed>
