1.) Women and Prayer
“Is it Ok for a Christian woman to…..”
- Participate in a group prayer when men are present (Life Group, Small Bible Class, Elders/Staff Prayer time, etc)
- Offer or lead an individual prayer when men are present (Life Group, Small Bible Class, Elders/Staff Prayer time, etc)

- Offer or lead an individual prayer when men are present (Sunday morning worship)

Can Prayer be separated from the discussion of Women’s Role in the Church?
