Proverbs 1-2: 1 Corinthians 14: 21-40

Good Morning Truth Seekers! Proverbs 1 tells us that the these writing is for attaining wisdom and discipline; for understanding words of insight; for acquiring a disciplined and prudent life.
According to Prov. 2 wisdom can be found by those searching for it. It will save you from the ways of wicked men, but direct you toward the way of good men. I hope you are searching for it.

1 Corinthians 14: 20-40 concludes the discussion on speaking in tongues. Paul is set that without an interpreter it is inappropriate in worship. He also says that women are not to speak in church. I am compelled to say that the women were limited in many ways when it came to faith. I really do not know when we changed by way of the role women play in church, but I do know that in my life time it has always been a part of my church experience. I am perplexed to say the least about culture and time and this scripture regarding women. I believe that time brings about a change, and this is one of them. Women play a huge role in church, however we have limited their role not to include pastoral leadership. What are your thoughts?
