Fear

I have been thinking about what keeps women from answering God's call into full-time, church-sanctioned ministry. There are a variety of reasons. Could I get some feedback from some of you as to what your fears are related to determining whether God is calling you or what are the difficulties in answering the call? If you are an "onlooker" but have ideas based on your observations of women dealing with this issue or the church's resistance to women in ministry, please weigh in as well.

  1. a fear I have heard is that the churches will not hire a woman for a pastoral position. The LBA is still male dominated in their thinking and will not give serious consdieration to a woman.
