Woman Pastors

Saddleback, a California megachurch associated with the Southern Baptist Convention, recently appointed three female pastors. This drew backlash from SBC president J.D. Greear, who advised that the church needs to "stand on the bedrock of God's Word."

Saddleback Church in California recently celebrated the ordination of three women pastors.

The Christian and Missionary Alliance is considering extending the title of "pastor" to women leaders within the denomination.

A new survey suggests that most Evangelical protestants support women having leadership positions in the church.

Controversy over the scheduled spoken word performance by a female teaching pastor at an SBC pastors' conference has caused Bible teacher and author Beth Moore to speak out.

Despite pastors threatening to boycott a major pastors conference over a scheduled spoken word performance by female teaching pastor Hosana Wong, the Southern Baptist Convention is seemingly standing by Wong.

After publicly criticizing author and speaker Beth Moore, this weekend, John MacArthur continued his commentary on women preachers.

Bible teacher Beth Moore, who was publicly mocked last week by a prominent evangelical leader, responded on Twitter Monday saying she would continue to follow Jesus and that she did not “surrender to a calling of man.”

Let me begin by saying that I know and appreciate many women who have been recognized as pastors. They are diligent, steadfast, and hard-working. Our country has done a great disservice to women over the years by not elevating and supporting women in roles of leadership.

When Influential pastor John MacArthur thinks of preacher and author Beth Moore, he thinks she should “go home.”
