Women in ministry

Women in Ministry refers to the active involvement of women in religious leadership roles within various faith communities. This includes serving as pastors, priests, deacons, and in other spiritual roles traditionally held by men. The movement supports the idea that women should have equal opportunities to contribute to religious teaching, leadership, and community service. Different religious traditions have varied perspectives on this issue, with some fully embracing female leadership and others maintaining more traditional views. The conversation around women in ministry often intersects with broader discussions about gender equality, empowerment, and the interpretation of religious texts.
