...We had the second day of student sermons in my preaching class today. Everyone who has spoken has been really really good. And we had a couple of women who really shined. My thinking is that the men in the class are somehow giving them special permission to speak so powerfully in their presence. My understanding is that Micronesian women will do a cultural stand-down in the presence of men. But I think that the men have been so encouraging and open that the women are feeling free to preach with authority and conviction. In a sense their success is directly related to the openness of the men in the class.
