women's ordination
(Translated by Carlos Enrique Espinosa)
The question may seem preposterous, perhaps it is…however, let me continue.
Pandora and Greek Mythology
In Greek mythology, Pandora was the first woman, created by order of Zeus as part of a punishment to Prometheus for having revealed the secret of fire to humans.

The students of PUC continue to roll out informative conversations on contemporary issues. Here theology major Jillian Spencer talks with pastor Norma Osborn, one of the first ordained female pastors in the Seventh-day Adventist Church. (10 min.) They discuss Norma's early hesitation, being commissioned-ordained and a Christocentric argument for local, not global, social change.
The original disciples were male—mostly young, mostly without strong family responsibilities. Imagine how women in this culture of highly restricted gender roles would have been viewed had they tried to become members of this group of twelve. Christ’s ministry would have stirred even more suspicion and anger than it already did.
