Women in leadership

1 Timothy
Women in leadership... that's a hot topic!  Check out the last bit of 1 Timothy chapter 2.  Paul's message that women should be silent in church is, in my opinion, culturally based.  I believe there is a time and place for women to be in leadership, simply because the bible also says that there is neither male nor female, slave nor free, etc.  We're all the same in Christ, at least in terms of human equality.  My personal take is that men should be the head, as it often says in scripture, but that in no way limits women from participating in some form of church leadership.
