@Mike. Replied on the other thread...

@MetalMike For those who do it, it's definitely something for adult women to do, rather than for adolescents.

I think we are going to disagree very, very strongly here, @Agios. The idea of clerical monopolies in the desire to evangelize is foreign to the NT. Some ppl are particularly gifted in the areas which those verses describe, but the idea that a desire to testify to the power of the Gospel must...

@Mike. Hi; good to hear from you. It's good to get into the custom of reading God's Word daily in a prayerful way so that faith can be strengthened and confirmed.
