Would you take your car to a garage staffed entirely by girls to have it repaired? How about one that was managed by a 19-year-old girl? There’s no doubt she would know more about what she’s doing than I would.
In San Antonio, TX, Treds Tire and Wheel is an all-girl garage. Andrea Rodriguez is the 19-year-old and her mom bought a shop that had been used by several other tire businesses which had failed. Business seems to be booming. The girls can do anything the guys at Pep Boys across the street can do. It’s just that the tools are pink and polka-dotted.
There is very little that a male can do that a female cannot do and vice versa. There are clearly some limitations on each, with genetic reasons for it. Not all cultures and societies have recognized the inherent equality between the male and the female. There was a prayer attributed to a Rabbi Meier which said, “Blessed be He that He did not make me a Gentile; blessed be He that He did not make me a slave (or ignorant peasant); blessed be he that He did not make me a woman.”
Jesus and the apostle Paul would disagree. Men and women are inherently equal. Paul wrote in Galatians 3:28: “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.”
But the inherent equality of men and women does not mean they can have the same role in the family or Christ’s church. If a husband is present in the home, then he is the head of the house (Ephesians 5:22-23). If men are present in the church, then they are to accept the leadership of that congregation.

Women cannot serve as elders/pastors per the apostle Paul in 1 Timothy 3:2. Women cannot serve as deacons, per the apostle Paul in 1 Timothy 3:12. Women may not teach over or exercise authority over Christian men in worship, per Paul in 1 Timothy 2:11-12 and 1 Corinthians 14:34-35. Again, it’s not a matter of ability or value. It’s a matter of God’s pattern and His authority.
For an example of how God responds when someone assumes authority which God has not delegated, see Numbers 16.
A woman may repair my car but she cannot lead Christ’s church in worship.
