Last night I had a very interesting conversation with a group of both non-believers and believers about the biblical 'roles' set about for men and women. This is something that is understandable very hard for many non-believers as well as many believers to understand. I was never quite able to articulate it to the non-believers how a woman's role is not sexist or dominating, but just a different purpose but just as important. As many times as I said something along those lines, they still seemed to view it as sexist or something along those lines.
How do you all see this relationship? Roles? Do you have any good analogies? How do you interpret the 2 Timothy 2 passage? Are you comfortable with the roles given to each sex? Why did God choose to make it this way? How do you explain the equality of the roles?
Please feel free to express your thoughts! :)

If you go to the Cedar Heights webpage, one of Pastor Kevin's sermons is on this...somewhere when he is going through 1 Timothy...it should be obvious which one...but it was pretty good! Might be helpful :) Our roles are a beautiful display of the Gospel to unbelievers and believers and reflects the roles in the church. Beauty :)
