The Relationship Between a Woman and a Pastor
There were very few women pastors in those days, and no women pastors of large churches in our denomination. So there was a lot of conflict all over the place because we all came from these different theological points of view. We also had this whole class conflict going on between the fundamentalists and those of us who had been exposed to liberation theology or biblical studies. People didn't want the language to change, and some of us felt like that was just absolutely esser. And yes, because we had no place else to go, I mean, that was the gift and curse - i think it's a bigger gift than a curse."
