Featured Speaker:
Dr. Roberta Hestenes, Minister at Large, World Vision
 After my Christian conversion while in college, I was taught repeatedly that it was inappropriate and wrong for women to assume formal or highly visible leadership roles within the Christian community. The Bible forbade it and male leaders reinforced this with support from the women around them. Women should labor quietly and almost invisibly "behind the scenes," with a submissive spirit under male leadership. I even co-authored a discussion Bible study guide that asserted that public speaking and teaching gifts were restricted to men while women had other gifts such as the gift of "service" and "helps."Over a 50 year journey of Christian discipleship, I have had to work through, at theoretical, personal and practical levels, the issues related to women in leadership.
