Women Speaking in the Church

Summary

Elder Neal Phelan, Jr. preaches from 1 Corinthians 14, addressing the disorderly use of spiritual gifts, particularly speaking in tongues, in the Corinthian church. He emphasizes the importance of orderly worship that edifies the church and convicts visitors, contrasting chaotic tongues with meaningful prophecy and teaching. The sermon also covers the controversial biblical instruction for women to remain silent in the church, grounding it in scriptural authority and the created order. Phelan calls for reverence, learning, and submission to God's order in worship and church life.
