I received the following email from Stacey Wynn. This is what I believe, and I highly recommend the links below for your further study.
“I am going to champion the equality of women in the church. God has given me the mission to bring clarity of purpose to women, so they can unleash their gifts within the church. With each day, I feel an urgency to do more to further the message of equality within the body of Christ. I believe the church is wide open to all believers regardless of race, gender or ethnicity. I believe Jesus Christ is our common denominator, as is our belief that the Holy Spirt was poured on all believers. I believe that the gifts of the Spirit determine our role within the body, not our biology. I also believe that speaking the truth of scripture is what sets us free.”
