Taking an interlude away from my theology of disability post series, today.<\/em><\/p>\n

As soon as I saw this awesome poster, I wished I was a guy for about 2 seconds. It’s so goofy and cool at the same time.<\/p>\n

There’s probably a good reason why there are no females on this poster. And, no I’m not going to say because Evangelical\u00a0Christianity is basically a boys club with bonus points for popularity. It’s probably because for some reason we can somehow respect a goofy guy, and still take what he says seriously.<\/p>\n

Is there a double standard? Take Tina Fey. She’s obviously brilliant, and she’s also cute, and incredibly funny. But, what if she cranked it up a notch, and started a devotional series, or starting sharing her suggestions on worship music, or maybe exegeting Romans 12. Would her street cred take a dive? Would everyone just start scratching their heads? Maybe that’s a bad example.<\/p>\n

Let me try it the other way. What if Beth Moore did a poster spoofing Carol Burnett? Would this help women rely on her more thoroughly while getting out of their pits, or becoming more secure?<\/strong><\/p>\n

What is it about leadership or ministry and gender roles? I’m puzzled.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I may have to test it out personally. A Zena Warrior Princess outfit may in my future.<\/p>\n
