Andrew asks the questions, “Does God allow a woman to be a pastor?” and “Does God permit women to preach in the church?” There are many different views on these issues. The question we must ask is this, “What does God’s Word say?” Andrew will examine the excuses people offer in support of female pastors and preachers. He will deal with the pertinent texts and demonstrate that the Bible, though it clearly teaches that men and women are of equal value before God, also teaches that men and women have different roles assigned to them by God and that the role of pastoring and preaching simply is not a role He has assigned to women. Andrew will conclude the program by explaining why this issue is of such importance for the church today.

Andrew is joined by Virgil Walker from the Just Thinking podcast to discuss the mass murder in Sri Lanka last week and why it is that so many could not bring themselves to identify who were the victims. The left who blame Christians for so many of the ills of culture, cannot bring themselves to admit that Christians are being targeted over and over again. There is a political agenda to attack Christianity and blame Christians when in fact is the Christians that are the victims as the left victimizes Christians. The media would not call the victims Christians but only "Easter Worshipers". Andrew and Virgil then respond to a video of Steven Furtick defining the purpose of the church. They explain the biblical purpose of the church and it is not what Steve Furtick thinks that it is.
