IFCA: It’s Not Just for Men! -Wendy Bargas
IFCA Executive Director Richard Bargas talks with his wife Wendy about the IFCA Women’s Fellowship and how IFCA exists not just for men, but to help our sisters in Christ as well. How does IFCA bless the women of the church? Through our annual convention on an international scale, but also within our local regional meetings, and within the local church. Touching on topics like how IFCA has helped churches develop women’s ministry in the local church context, how postmillennialism and the “trad wife” movement is both right and wrong, and how Titus 2 is supposed to bolster both practical ministry within the home as much as, if not more than, theological education for women. Finally, they tackle the growing trend for young pastor’s wives who have chosen to disengage from ministry at church and why this is unbiblical, and how it is often an overreaction to some churches abusing the role of a pastor’s wife.
