Christs last instructions to the church were to take the gospel to the ends of the earth. This Great Commission is a big job, and it will take all the soldiers of Christ working together selflessly to accomplish the task. Yet if half of the so great a cloud of witnesses spoken of in Hebrews consists of women, with God moving many women throughout history to serve him both in the home and out in the world, why is there still controversy about women and the Great Commission?

In Half the Clouds: Women in the Kingdom of God, author Mary Walker explores the biblical, theological, and philosophical history of women in Gods kingdom; and she shows how women have been consistently called by God to not only be part of the Great Commission but lead in the ministry as well. It can be proven that God has indeed used women in ministry, both in the Bible and as witnesses, martyrs, and leaders in the early Christian church and beyond; and reflecting on the role of women as ambassadors for the gospel can tell us about why continuing this tradition is so important today and how there are consequences for abandoning women as part of this ministry.

In serving Christ, we transform the culture around us, and the goal is to preach the gospel to the ends of the earth. It will take all Christians, male and female, serving Christ in whatever way they are called to fulfill the Great Commission.
