"In a culture (then and now) where men dominate, it is easy to believe that there is something inherently more valuable in maleness than in femaleness. But that is not the Biblical narrative. The Bible makes no distinctions in the distribution of spiritual gifts to men or women nor in their significance in service to the church. If you are a woman, you are precious to YHWH. You are not valuable because you are weaker, lesser, need special protection, are vulnerable. You are precious because you are made in his image."

Pastor Steve continues our look into the Old Testament Law, and walks us through how God deeply values Women; both then and now.
