Come Forth as Gold
"Thou hast formed us for Thyself, and our hearts are restless until they find their rest in Thee"
Set your mind on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God

More on the roles of Men and Women

“A real woman understands that man was created to be the initiator, and she operates on that premise. This is primarily a matter of attitude. I am convinced that the woman who understands and accepts with gladness the difference between masculine and feminine will be, without pretense or self-consciousness, womanly.”—Let Me Be a Woman by Elisabeth Elliot

“The world cries for men who are strong—strong in conviction, strong to lead, to stand, to suffer. I pray that you will be that kind of man—glad that God made you a man, glad to shoulder the burden of manliness in a time when to do so will often bring contempt.”—Mark of a Man by Elisabeth Elliot

Amen. That is all i have time to post now, what are your thoughts dear brothers and sisters? Let us stick to the topic :)
His alone, Kate

Oh, How I truly like the way God planned for man and woman to live and interact with each other. It all fits into His big picture. However, what my question is, how do you serve with a leader who doesn't take those roles? I have yet to feel that I have an answer to this. I have learned that encouragement, prayer, and finding ways to serve the brother within the leadership tasks are all helpful ways. But what is the right way to approach this?
