Disfellowshipped Churches, Rick Warren, the SBC, and Women Pastors: Part I

Disfellowshipped Churches, Rick Warren, the SBC, and Women Pastors: Part I

“What changed my mind was scripture,” said author and retired Southern Baptist pastor Rick Warren, to explain why he changed his mind and now affirms women serving as church pastors. In this article, I’ll connect the dots between disfellowshipped churches, Rick Warren, the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC), and women pastors. For those of you who are not a Southern Baptist, don’t attend an SBC church, or haven’t followed the recent happenings in the SBC (the largest Protestant denomination in the U.S.), please keep reading because this conversation broadens to a discussion about women, the Bible, and the disagreement among complementarians and egalitarians over women pastors.
