This is an interesting conversation. Popcorn was good but time to chime in.
There will never be a consensus on this subject. You have the Priscilla factor, the four daughters, Deborah, along with many others mentioned in scripture.
You also have scripture telling women to remain silent in the church. Ask your husbands at home.
Then there is the pastor as head of the church.
First, eliminate pastoral headship. Family structure is as follows; children then parents, wife then husband, husband then Christ, Christ then the Father. No where is a pastor to have a lineup in this family structure. He is a leader, nowhere is he supposed to take a headship over another man, or another man’s family.
Be silent in the church; even today in the Middle East, women and men are separated in the mosques. Even in some Christian circles, men and women sit separately in churches. During the first days of the church, women sat in the back and couldn’t hear all that was being said. They would (loudly) ask their husbands what was said and it would disrupt the service. So, the logical thing to do was tell them to remain silent and ask the hubby what was said at home.
As the head of my house, I have given my wife permission to speak and teach in the church. Since no one in my church or on this site can take away my headship of my family, I stand firm in her right to speak up. And frankly, she’s a good teacher.
Since a pastor never had the right of headship over any man, then I see no issue with a woman being a pastor, if her husband has given his permission. And, assuming the wife continues being submissive to her husband.
The New Testament speaks of women pastors, and the scripture has final authority.
But, I can’t stress enough, patriarchy must remain intact. Submission must remain intact. Going outside family leadership, as defined in the scripture, is a good recipe for failure.
