It dawned on him that the case for restricting women was NOT a strong one! He went to the others on his church staff to tell them the good news. Sadly, they didn't all see it that way. This is The Terran Williams Story - Part 2 on The Eden Podcast.
Pastor Terran got the other staff members together. "Guys I think we've got it wrong!" I thought they all would accept right away what I had found. But they didn't. And they went to strident people on the other side and read what they had written and I was asking for a sociological miracle.
Have you seen him talking with Sheila Gregoire on The Bare Marriage Podcast? Have you watched him correcting a YouTuber's incorrect teaching on women in ministry? Here is Part 1 in our multi-part interview of joyful South African Pastor Terran Williams, author of How God Sees Women, The End of Patriarchy.
Terran was an avid surfer who came from a divorced family, and a gay father who was one of the first to die of AIDS. Invited to a surfer camp that was a ministry outreach he heard the Good News of life in Christ and gave his heart to Jesus. Instantly he wanted to tell others this same Good News and he has been doing so ever since!
How did he become a pastor of a very large church? How did he take on the challenge to prove women should be kept out of ministry but saw the error of this view? How did his realization cost him his pastorate? What did he put in his book How God Sees Women, the End of Patriarchy.
All this and more as we launch into Season 14 of The Eden Podcast on audio and on the Tru316 YouTube Channel!
