How Can Women Thrive in the Local Church?

Aaron Carroll: One of the wonderful things about families is that we're not all the same. Mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers have different parts to play to benefit one another in different ways. "We instinctively know that sisters provide something different to a family than brothers do," he says. The Bible has enough specific commands to blood, sister and brothers, but isn't brothers are different than sisters? He asks how women can embrace being a daughter to some, a sister to others and a mother to still others.
