As a Christian woman, this is not an attack on Christianity, the Church, or people of faith.

I still follow Jesus.

Much of what keeps me rooted in Christianity is Jesus Himself . The way He treated people, especially women, with dignity, compassion, inclusion, and spiritual value.

But I do think it is fair to ask difficult questions about whether some modern church teachings surrounding women reflect the heart of Jesus… or whether some reflect generations of culture, hierarchy, and human interpretation layered onto faith over time.

Jesus radically supported, trusted and elevated women.

So I think it is worth thoughtfully and prayerfully sitting with this question:

When we compare the way Jesus treated women to organized church culture surrounding women, do they fully align?

That is not an attack.
That is reflection.

For the first time in American history, women are reporting as less religious than men and we have empty pews.
