What does the Bible say about women leading in the church?

Dr. E answers a question about women in church leadership.

Q: My question is what is your interpretation as to what the Bible says about women leading in the church?

My almost 11 year old daughter has a relationship, understanding and hunger for God and His word that is incredible. I have felt/ believed for many years that there is a special calling and anointing on her life. She, in the last year, has declared that she “wants to be a preacher” –

A few Sundays ago she visited a Baptist church with a friend and in that sermon heard that “women should not be preachers” based on 1 Timothy –

I have researched, we have talked about it but agreed we (her and I) would “dig in” and figure it out. I want to lead her in the right way and I don’t want to allow doubt to be planted that could confuse her or keep her from Gods will in her life. What are your thoughts on this matter?

Lastly, I found this article yesterday as I look for insight and understanding. I have attached the article. https://www.relevantmagazine.com/culture/yes-women-are-called-to-lead/
