Ever since the earliest days of Christianity, the role for women in the Church has been a matter of hot debate that even today has yet to be resolved.

We will be exploring each of these women and how they have contributed to a question we have been trying to answer for many years: should women be allowed to preach and lead in pastoral ministry?
