Yes! Teach Equip was founded by two women who happily hold to a complementarian view of women in ministry.
We believe men and women are equal in worth and gifting but that there are differences in their roles within the home and the church. We believe that God has called men to hold primary leadership in the church as pastors and elders, but that underneath their leadership women should use their teaching gifts in partnership with and submission to their own church leaders.
This program was developed because of the encouragement of our pastors (who are also complementarian). We’d love to see more partnership between men and women in complementarian churches and more women’s teaching to happen underneath the care of pastors. That’s why we created Teach Equip.
Are you complementarian?
Is training women to teach truly complementarian?
We think so!
Teach Equip began at Stonegate Church in Midlothian, TX.
Listen to Stonegate’s Lead Pastor and Teaching & Worship Pastor along side Lindsay and Kelly (Teach Equip’s founders) as they share how this program came to be and why complementarian churches need to train their women to teach.
This was a workshop held at the National Acts 29 Conference in Dallas, TX in April 2024.
HEAR FROM OUR LEAD PASTOR
“Pastor, the women of your church are learning theology. But from where? What voices are teaching them? Rather than outsourcing the theological development of women to those outside your church, why not develop those voices in your church? That’s what Teach Equip is designed to do. It'll help develop women within your church to bless the women of your church. I could not recommend Teach Equip highly enough.”
Rodney Hobbs, Lead Pastor, Stonegate Church
