SNAKE 30: Are Women’s Ministries and Women-Led Bible Studies Valuable?

The hidden dangers in women's Bible studies are more common than you might think. Join pastors Jerry Dorris and Tanner Cartwright as they tackle the controversial topic of women's ministries and Bible studies in today's church. Drawing from their pastoral experience at Reformation Church, they explore what Scripture actually teaches about older women mentoring younger women, and why many modern approaches miss the mark.

Learn why traditional women's Bible study formats often lead to gossip and division instead of genuine spiritual growth. We discuss the biblical model found in Titus 2, practical alternatives to formal programs, and how authentic mentorship should naturally flow within the church body.

This candid conversation addresses:

- Biblical roles for women teaching other women

- The problems with celebrity women teachers

- How organic fellowship trumps formal programs

- Practical ways older women can mentor younger women

- Why theology should primarily come from the pulpit

Whether you're a woman seeking biblical guidance or a church leader evaluating women's ministry approaches, this discussion offers valuable insights into building healthy, Scripture-based women's discipleship.
