After all the biblical information provided you might still ask about Timothy's mom and grandma, hoping for a loophole, but there isnt one.  If you read this far, and are still looking for a loophole, you have a rebellion issue. An unteachable spirit that wont submit to God.  For the record, Timothy was considered a pastor of a church and his mother and grandmother held positions of service, like all servants of God. We are all to serve in the church. Scripture reveals that women can do anything in the church except that of an pastor(1). Just because our secular cultural has a focus on "women" these days, it doesn’t mean the Bible has changed; it never does. Jesus revealed himself to the women because in Jewish tradition, they were believed to be the closest to God, and since they were who they were, they were more likely to be believed. Mary was of the tribe of Judah just like Joseph, but it is his line that we follow, not hers. Men are to be the heads and women are t...

What we need to know There is perhaps no more hotly debated issue in the church today than the issue of women serving as pastors. It is no wonder too, because so few read & even know what Scripture says. Others are spiritually blind because they arent saved and therefore do not have the Holy Spirit to reveal the truth to them.  It is very important to not see this issue as men versus women. Christian women also recognize women should not serve as pastors and that the Bible clearly places restrictions on the ministry of women. This is not an issue of chauvinism or discrimination It is an issue of biblical truth, and God's design. The Word of God proclaims, “A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent” (1 Timothy 2:11–12). In the church, God assigns different roles to men and women.
