Abstract

Since the 1950s, women have made significant strides toward gender equality in the workplace. However, they often encounter greater resistance when entering into leadership roles, both in becoming a leader in the first place as well as in leading itself. Women have met even greater opposition when leading in the church. Female clergy in all denominations need support and encouragement from their surrounding environment as well as knowledge of what to expect in order to be empowered to effectively proclaim the Gospel.
