JustAs the church began to grow and change from the band of Apostles and about an hundred followers of Jesus it strained under the sudden addition of three thousand souls on the day of Pentecost. Surely God was teaching them also in that time that he was in charge of the church and he will grow it according to his design. Many of the difficulties which arose early came as a result of that growth.

One thing that contributes to the patriarchal bias that is commonly taught in our churches is the fact that God decided that the man needed a helper in Genesis chapter 2. We interpret this to mean that the woman was somehow the subordinate, gofer, sidekick, or lackey to the man. He was Batman and she was Robin. He was the dad working on the car and she was the kid fetching the needed wrench or screwdriver.
