Prs. Larry Kirkpatrick and Mike Lambert discuss the theological move of denominations which approve women's ordination and their inevitable drift into approval of same-sex unions. They consider how one and only one denomination so far has turned back from this---by reestablishing a historical-grammatical interpretive plan at their seminary. Discussion turns, with some regret, to the current situation of the Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary located in Berrien Springs, MI. The women's ordination-favoring theological approach of the current dean is investigated, and the core presupposition identified. All this, in just 13 minutes.

Prs. Wayne Kablanow and Jim Brackett discuss women's ordination. Is WO as we have seen its proponents attempting to introduce it to the church today, actually congregationalism just at a larger scale? Is letting each division decide independently in essence the same as letting each congregation decide independently? Kablanow and Brackett work their way into the topic carefully in this extended study. 33 minutes!
