Summary
Why do you think God created women?
We know from Genesis that God didn’t say, “We have all these fish, we may as well have women too,” but instead he said, “It is not good” without women. Women take on all sorts of roles in our society, but it can be particularly difficult to suss out what exactly is our role in church and leadership.
My guest this week is theologian Joel Muddamalle. Joel serves as the Director of Theology and Research for Proverbs 31 Ministries among other teaching and preaching responsibilities. In our conversation this week we dive into both the Complementarian and Egalitarian viewpoints as well as receiving gentle encouragement of the great value God places on women and the charge to approach these issues with humility.

| 0:00.0 | Hey y'all, welcome back to the Don't Mom Alone podcast. |
| 0:10.4 | I'm your host Heather McFaddean and this is the place where I get to walk alongside you |
| 0:14.9 | and connect you with people and resources so you know that you don't mom alone. |
| 0:19.8 | And in this episode number 397, I have invited to the show Joel Muramau. |
| 0:27.7 | I really think that what this is is an issue of humility. |
| 0:31.5 | This is an issue of our awareness. |
| 0:34.3 | Do we are we aware of who God is? |
| 0:36.7 | And if we're aware of who God is, then we can be aware of who we are in light of who |
| 0:40.1 | God is, children of the most high. |
| 0:42.4 | And if we're aware of who God is and who we are, it actually frames our understanding of |
| 0:46.6 | who we are in relationship to our brothers and sisters. |
| 0:49.9 | And when that takes place, when that kind of triangular orientation takes place, it puts |
| 0:55.4 | us in a posture of humility where it rejects pride. |
| 1:00.7 | I invited Joel onto the podcast because several of you asked me to do an episode on roles |
| 1:05.6 | of women in the church and in church leadership. |
| 1:08.7 | And I know this is one of those hot topics and I thought Joel would be a trusted guide. |
| 1:15.1 | He is the director of theology and research for Proverbs 31 ministries. |
| 1:20.7 | And I let him know that I really like to hold the middle on these topics. |
| 1:25.2 | He does as well. |
| 1:26.9 | We define complementarian and egalitarian and I will tell you it may even seem as you're |
