Rick Warren’s Saddleback church recently made headlines by ordaining three female leaders. I was grateful to see these women recognized and lent both the public authority and institutional accountability that comes from ordination. But when I read the news, I also thought with a heavy sigh, “Oh, here we go again.” I knew the debate about women’s roles in the church would dominate conversation all week, and I could already predict the rutted arguments I’d hear recited over and over. Here’s an open secret: You know who hates talking about women’s ordination? Female pastors. Not all of us, of course. Some women have a special unction to debate this topic, and honestly, more power to them. ....
Scot McKnight Image: Unsplash One of the ironies of contemporary discussions about whether or not women should be ordained or not is the role Christ plays in the arguments against women’s ordination. William Witt, in Icons of Christ, offers nothing less than very clever statement about this very issue (my emphasis): The Catholic and Protestant positions thus provide contrary reasons for not ordaining women to church office.

He’s right: the creation account is used by both sides of this debate, one side for equality and mutuality and the other side for hierarchy and subordination. Which is more consistent with the text? ....

The claim to have a traditional argument ag: women s ordination is far from traditional Scot McKnight Image: Unsplash Many claim to be providing the “traditional” reason why women should not be ordained, saying their view is the traditional view. William Witt, in This book is a grand step forward in this discussion today in this very point. You can now challenge every complementarian who utters the view that their argument is the traditional view. Before I take another step forward I want to give the big ideas of this post: First, the church’s traditional view is that women were ontologically inferior to men. ....
