How Women's Ministry Went Wrong | with Rachel Jankovic

[maramaxwell]

I quit complaining about my marital issues with my girlfriends when I heard one of them speaking about my husband the way I was... it was so hurtful. I heard myself for the first time and hadn’t truly realized the damage I was doing to our relationship and his friendships with them too. Thankful for this video, y’all are great. God bless you.

26:25 mourn with those who mourn righteously - excellent point, pastor. Just like we are to judge others righteously, not sinfully Jn.7:24

This is so good! Thank you both for your time and obedience and faith to the Lord. It has helped me more than you know. Praise be to the God of our salvation!

It’s super interesting to me, when I hear about this sort of gossiping women group dynamic. I was raised by a single dad, I was a tom boy, then I was in the military. So now as an adult wife and mother, I’m just now starting to experience the “female group” sort of atmosphere. And holy hanna is it different from guys!!!

“A wife and a mother” of wisdom and substance. My God it’s refreshing to see this in 2021-saved or lost. Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb.

Women's ministry has turned into entertainment and social club. It absolutely is not about the word of God, or even our sanctification. It's basically a life coaching club, it is NOT about dying to ourselves. I can't stand the state of women's ministry in America.

Bravo 👏 yes! We need a mission as women, what is the mission? Holy smokes I love this lady. I've got to find her book!

“What is the trajectory of this?” Is an EXCELLENT question. 💕

Love Rachel; thanks for having her on🤍

My previous female friend group would be red in the face from anger if they watched this. I could no longer be friends with them as they were following hard after American Evangelical Feminism. Even between my mom and I there's a stark theological difference between how we view women in leadership. It's so encouraging to hear a woman who holds the same beliefs that I do, while at the same time challenging me on accountability.

The church I grew up in had a very good women's ministry. They catered to funeral dinners, did various things to raise money for things needed for the church, etc. They rarely did things that wasn't doing some type of help. They would do dinners and invite the husbands! The only thing I think could have been better is that the older women should have been teaching the younger women how to love their husbands and to work at home, just like the Bible says.

I am a sahm and I struggle to keep up with the work load even though we have a dishwasher and washing machine!! It’s still very much a full time job even though we have modern appliances to make jobs easier. I don’t know how they did it back in the days before electricity.

This has stretched me in a good way :)… The portion about accountability was especially ☺️🙌🏻.

Philippians 1:6

The issue is that there are many women who due to feminism are super-sensitive to any perceived criticisms and can't stand hearing any teaching about male and female roles

Scripture is great! Platitudes fall flat. Especially when someone is in pain.

[worthybookjourney]

I agree with Rachel so very much. The problem (not that the problem changes what God is saying in the Scriptures) is that the pastors are not necessarily worthy of being followed. After the Southern Baptist Convention mess (just for one example) and the direction that pastors are taking us, it is hard to accept many pastors' leadership. Seminaries are not teaching truth. So then what?

[bartvermeulen]

Thanks!! Thank you Lord jesus christ .

Women's ministry should be about women meeting needs, not meeting women's felt needs.

[ByGraceThruFaith]

Not much for single women to do in the church, which is discouraging to me. I'm not a wife or homemaker so really have no place to serve, other than cooking meals when needed.

[jakeabbatacola]

Great stuff. Please do one on men’s ministries, as most men’s Bible studies and events I’ve experienced are feminized versions of football locker rooms.

This just popped up on my watch list and I appreciate this video and topic. I'm 43, no kids, divorced and newly out of WOF prosperity gospel. I have begun attending a Reformed leaning Baptist church in the DFW area. As I study more and learn more about the Bible, I am struggling to find my place in the church though I realize by God's providence, where I've come from in my past will be used for His glory. I would love to get remarried as my divorce was Biblical and I believe that desire has not been taken away by the Lord. I just wish there were more women or men who spoke to those of us in the reformed church who are not typical...not typically who have married an equally yoked person and found that Godly spouse who teaches them and raised children with each other. I need Biblical guidance on what am I supposed to do when I will never be a mother from my womb. I won't have babies with my next husband. I have a high paying mktg career I've been in for 20 yrs and I'd give it all up for my God honoring husband but as a single woman without one...it's how I take care of myself. So I struggle with only finding videos and podcasts how I should be as a mother and wife. I'm looking into seminary classes online bc I don't have a husband to teach me and my church and elders are great but my church is very much families with children and that's their focus as well.
