Lost In Translation: Phoebe, Servant or Minister?

Lost In Translation: Phoebe, Servant or Minister?

Though inequality makes some of my complementarian friends uneasy, they hold fast to their beliefs nonetheless. They do this, some tell me, because they must remain true to the word of God, even if it makes them uncomfortable. On one level, I think their steadfast loyalty to the Bible is commendable…In the case of a complementarian belief system, however, I think loyalty to God and his word has been misappropriated.
