Ruslan KD and Shane Idleman Talk Women Pastors in the Church from a Biblical Perspective. In this video, we dive deeper into the critical discussion on women in ministry within the charismatic church and the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR). Following last week's eye-opening look at influential figures like Cindy Jacobs, Patricia King, and Stacey Campbell—and the concerning trends and excesses that have entered the church through certain teachings—we now explore the biblical roles women should hold. As reformation sweeps the charismatic movement, we must ground our views on Scripture rather than emotion or culture. I share why, after an intensive 50-hour Bible study with Mike Winger (despite my prior beliefs and seminary training), I concluded that in the women in ministry debate that women should not serve in senior leadership roles such as senior pastors, elders, or apostles/bishops. This aligns with the overwhelming historical church consensus and recent examples like Paula White, while affirming women's invaluable, irreplaceable contributions in other vital capacities.
To enrich the conversation, women pastors a biblical perspective, I feature trusted voices including Pastor Shane Idleman's insightful clip from his recent discussion with Ruslan KD, where he addresses women pastors from a charismatic perspective we share. We also highlight theologian Dr. Gavin Ortlund's airtight historical and biblical case showing this debate only arose in the last 50 years due to feminist influences—not Scripture. Additional input from Rod Saunders & Daryl, addresses practical caveats, like rare situations without male leaders, while stressing the need to raise up men first and avoid extremes (as seen in some churches shifting to predominantly female leadership). This isn't about dominating or excluding women—it's servant leadership, with men called to sacrificial responsibility, and everyone empowered by the outpouring in Acts 2:17-20. Let's discuss biblically in the comments—what does Scripture say about the women pastors debate?
