![]() ![]() About 75 of our women from Bridgeway attended, my wife included. Just over a week ago Beth Moore was in Oklahoma City at an event hosted by her Living Proof Ministries. I couldn’t help but ask myself as I listened to the panel discussion, “What has become of common courtesy?” I am a complementarian, but I fear in making known my convictions I may be linked with those who claim the same label and yet speak unkindly and in snarky, snide sound-bites of our Christian sisters. His assistant, Phil Johnson, was heard to say that what comes to his mind when he hears her name is “Narcissist.” He cites Beth Moore as an example of what it means “to preach yourself rather than Christ.” He proceeded to make a few additional comments about there being no basis in Scripture for women preachers. MacArthur’s immediate response also came in the form of two words: “Go home,”which provoked uproarious laughter from those in attendance. It turned out to be two words: “Beth Moore.” For those of you not yet aware of what happened, MacArthur was asked to give his brief response to what was supposed to be a one-word utterance. ![]() It seems that everyone is weighing in on the comments made by John MacArthur at his recent conference in California. ![]()
