Text us your questions!How did the role of "pastor's wife" replace ordination for women in church history? Is the news that there was women's ordination in church history hitting you unexpectedly right now? It's cool, we get it; take a moment and come back when you're ready.Historian and actual pastor's wife Beth Allison Barr returns for a potentially revelatory conversation about her latest book, Becoming the Pastor's Wife: How Marriage Replaced Ordination as a Woman's Path to Ministry. Drawing from extensive research, including archival discoveries and reading 150 pastor's wife books/manuals (yes, that's a real genre), Beth uncovers how the glorification of this role coincided with efforts to restrict women's ordination.This interview weaves eye-opening historical findings with deeply personal experiences. Beth shares stories of pastors' wives—herself included—being treated as church property, essentially an extension of her husband and his ministry rather than a full person. These aren't isolated incidents; they are systematic experiences faced by countless pastors' wives who are expected to provide unpaid ministerial labor while supporting their husband's careers.Perhaps most striking is the historical evidence that women served in virtually every ministry role men did for the first thousand years of Christianity—including as deacons, bishops, and preachers. The rise of complementarian theology—spoiler warning if you're not a regular listener of this podcast—is a modern development that deliberately ignores this rich history.While Beth doesn't shy away from the harm these practices have caused, she leaves us with hope borrowed from Doctor Who's beloved Van Gogh episode: while we can't undo past damage, we can "add to the good pile" by recognizing the truth, stopping harmful practices, and building a better future where women's gifts are fully welcomed in ministry. This is a conversation that will challenge your understanding of church history and inspire you to imagine new possibilities for what the church could be.=====Want to support us?The best way is to subscribe to our Patreon.

Priesthood is a Vocation in the Catholic Church that men are united to Christ the Head and make present his healing work through the Sacraments. Priests are connected to the people they serve and particularly connected through Christ. Listen to Fr. Frank Donio, S.A.C share more in this segment from the Son Rise Morning Show on Sacred Heart Radio, in his reflection on his Vocation story and practical advice for newly ordained priests.“Today is a day of great joy for the Church and for each of you who are being ordained as priests — together with your families, friends and companions in your years of formation. As the Rite of Ordination emphasizes in many places, the relationship between what we celebrate today and the People of God is fundamental. The depth, greatness and even duration of this divine joy that we now share are directly proportional to the bonds that exist and will deepen between you, who are being ordained, and the people from which you come, of which you remain a part and to which you are sent. I will dwell on this aspect, always keeping in mind that the identity of a priest depends on union with Christ, the Eternal High Priest.” - Pope Leo XIV, Homily for Mass of priestly ordination May 31, 2025.Notes:Jubilee ResourcesView Vocational Discernment ResourcesRead Pope Leo's Homily from Ordination MassVisit Pope Leo XIV resource pageOn Mission podcast: Holy Orders Follow us:The Catholic Apostolate CenterThe Center's podcast websiteInstagramFacebookApple PodcastsSpotify Fr.

Fr. Anthony Male, pastor of St. Anthony Catholic Church in Elmendorf, visits with parishioners May 28 at a celebratory reception, following Mass to celebrate the 17th anniversary of his ordination to the priesthood. He told parishioners he was the first priest ordained by a new bishop in his native India. After his ordination, he studied abroad before being sent to Texas — which he thought was a country!

The qualifications for an overseer in Christ's Church are very clear (see 1 Timothy 3 and Titus 1). He is to be above reproach, soberminded, self-controlled, gentle, well-thought-of, and the husband of one wife. Therefore, we believe that pastors are allowed to marry. The distinction between a pastor and bishop is not one of hierarchical power, but of servanthood to God's people. The Roman Church began utilizing bishops to gain power, rather than for the care of souls. Because of this, we understand that all qualified candidates for the pastoral office may be ordained by other pastors. Rev. Adam DeGroot joins Rev. Brady Finnern to discuss ordination and the marriage of priests. Find your copy of the Book of Concord - Concordia Reader's Edition at cph.org or read online at bookofconcord.org.

In this powerful conversation, Dr. Tracy McEwan, Dr. Rosie Clare Shorter, and Dr. Tanya Riches discuss their research on "feminist complaint collectives" across Catholic, Anglican, and Pentecostal traditions.

Leviticus 8 Bible Study - The Establishment of the Priesthood - Part 1 - The Ordination. In this Bible Study we look at Leviticus chapter 8. Chapters 8-10 are all about the establishment of the priesthood, and today we look at the ordination process. God gave Moses very specific instructions in Exodus 28 and 29 and here we see those plans carried out.Outline:00:49 - Leviticus 1-7 Offerings Review The offerings outlined in Leviticus 1-7: the burnt offering, the grain offering, the fellowship (peace) offering, as well as the sin and guilt offerings. We spent a lot of time looking at the blood of an offering. Leviticus 17.11 - the life is in the blood. The blood makes atonement. Heb 10.1-4. Heb 10.1206:00 - Prayer06:27 - Leviticus 8 overview.- More on the priesthood, read Exodus 28-19 09:32 - Leviticus 8.1-410:55 - Leviticus 9.5-9For more on the tabernacle priests' outfits read Leviticus 28 and watch the bible study video: https://youtu.be/ESCe9UF-nRg12:35 What did the Israelite High Priests' outfit look like?Photo taken from Rose Guide to the Tabernacle:https://www.christianbook.com/rose-guide-to-the-tabernacle/benjamin-galan/9781596362765/pd/362765?event=BRSRCG|PSEN15:02 - What are the Urim and the Thummim in the Bible?Exo 28.30Num 27.211 Sam 14.37-4521:34 - Leviticus 8.10-13 (anointing oil of the tabernacle and everything in it and outside it).23:11 - Leviticus 8.14-17 - “long lobe of the liver”25:32 - Leviticus 8.18-2126.50 - Leviticus 8.22-2928:31 - Why does Moses put blood on the Right ear lobe, the right thumb, and the right big toe of Aaron (the high priest)? 32:40 - Leviticus 8.30-36 - Everything has now been anointed and set apart for the work of the Lord.35:25 - If Jesus is our high priest (Heb 4.14-16) why do we not see Him go through a similar ordination process? Why does he not need to make atonements or sacrifices?Heb 9.11-15 - gives us the answer.27:56 - Conclusions: In the Old Covenant, God's people had a priesthood, but under the New Covenant, we, the church, are called to be that priesthood.1 Peter 2.5, “you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.” We are still called to make sacrifices today, but they are spiritual in nature, and not through the blood of animals.1 Peter 2.9, “you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.”1 Cor 6.18-20, “Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore, honor God with your bodies.”Closing Question for you to think on, do you consider yourself a holy, anointed priest of the Lord, anointed, consecrated, Set Apart for the Lord? If not, why not? If so, how?Support Iron Sheep Ministries: https://Ironsheep.org/donateListen to the podcast: https://anchor.fm/ironsheepContact Dave & the ISM team: info@ironsheep.orgBe notified of each new teaching, join the email list: http://eepurl.com/g-2zAD

Pastor Brian Sauvé preaches on the book of Acts, The Office of Deacon (Ordination Sermon).

In this homily, Fr. Edward Looney reflects on the ordination rites and the cloth presented to the mother at the priest's first Mass. Fr. Edward encourages mothers and fathers to pray for vocations among their family, and to pray that the voice of Christ the Good Shepherd will be heard through Pope Leo XIV.

Jacob is the congregational leader of Congregation Rebirth in North Orlando ( Longwood), Florida. He was once living in pursuit of his own desire and  Messiah Yeshua revealed His power and grace to him in 2009. He chose to follow Him, and the Lord called him up (Aliyah) to his Jewish heritage, faith, and purpose. With the help of God, while having ministerial leadership since 2010, he  achieved a BA in Business from Rollins College in 2018 and, from the IAMCS Yeshiva, a Certificate of Completion for Ordination in 2024. Lastly, he is a candidate for a Masters of Divinity from Liberty University. Rabbi Jacob's hope is simply to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Yeshua and to lead those God has called him to in remembrance of our shared Heritage in Messiah Yeshua. Jacob recently authored the book “The Unkosher Marshmallow.”

We may be inclined to think this is somehow a recent aberration of culture or the church. This is a total misconception that it's only in recent times - the last 60 years - that women are being “allowed” into church leadership. The complaint against churches with women in leadership is that the church is copying culture.

The Second Sunday of Eastery

Historian and author Beth Allison Barr joins Thinking Christian to discuss her latest book, Becoming the Pastor’s Wife: How Marriage Replaced Ordination as a Woman’s Path to Ministry. We explore the medieval redefinitions of masculinity that reshaped church leadership, the rise of clerical celibacy, and how the Protestant Reformation unwittingly birthed a new ecclesial role: the pastor’s wife. Along the way, we talk ordination, authority, embodiment, cultural expectations, and the invisible burdens placed on ministry families. Whether you're a pastor, a pastor's spouse, or just trying to make sense of biblical manhood and womanhood in the 21st century, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.

Satyaraja begins the series of talks on the four acceptance verses with an inspiring, careful, and systematic exploration of the verse ‘With Loyalty to my Teachers, I Accept this Ordination'. He investigates the centrality of the relationship with Bhante Sangharakshita, our own preceptors and the world and culture which we join at the sacred moment of ordination. This talk was given as part of the series What is the Order? Given at Padmaloka Retreat Centre, 2022. *** Subscribe to our Free Buddhist Audio podcast:  On Apple Podcasts | On Spotify | On Google Podcasts A full, curated, quality Dharma talk, every week. 3,000,000 downloads and counting!Subscribe to our Dharmabytes podcast:  On Apple Podcasts | On Spotify | On Google Podcasts Bite-sized inspiration three times every week.
