WOMEN OF FAITH IN THE WORKPLACE
Explore The Role Of Woman In Business Through The Lens Of Scripture

While women’s representation in the marketplace has steadily increased in recent years, women remain significantly underrepresented in leadership roles. This is even more relevant in faith contexts and the Christian schools and churches I have worked and served in. However, the most holistic, the most complete examples of business in ancient scripture do not depict women as merely contributing to domestic life. Across the ANE, wisdom herself was depicted as a warrior, a woman of trade, and excellent in all she did. Perhaps modern social movements post World War 2 have contributed more to the role of women in society than scripture.
