Though Christianity is sometimes stereotyped in the popular imagination as a patriarchal religion, this is an inaccurate reflection of both Jesus’ teaching and the history of the Church. For His time, Jesus was radically inclusive of both men and women. On the whole, the Church has been a place where women have experienced greater freedom than in society. In the same way Jesus went out of his way to focus on children, giving them worth.
“That’s why He’s the Game Changer, because He took this unnamed, unwanted, abused, adopted chick that should have been a statistic, and He was the Game Changer. He just turned my life around radically. Then, not only that, but He gave me the sense that my life could be a game changer for somebody else’s life.”
