If you ask, why does the church SEEM to be sexist, sometimes it is because of sin; and sometimes it makes distinctions, because Jesus did. While there are sins that happen within the church and among Christians, that is not an accurate representation of Jesus, it is a misuse of his name. Jesus himself gave authority to preach and teach to the 12 disciples, who were all men. God has made a distinction between men and women, when it comes to authority in the church.

Pastor Mike Novotny has served God’s people in full-time ministry since 2007 in Madison and currently at The CORE in Appleton, Wisconsin. He also serves as the lead speaker for Time of Grace, where he shares the good news about Jesus through television, radio, print, and online platforms. Mike loves seeing people grasp the depth of God’s amazing grace and unstoppable mercy. His wife continues to love him (despite plenty of reasons not to), and his two daughters open his eyes to the love of God for every Christian. When not talking about Jesus or dating his wife/girls, Mike loves playing soccer, running, and reading.“But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8).
