Men and Women in Leadership

Our Position

At Irving Bible Church, we believe that God created both men and women in his image, that he offers the same Holy Spirit at salvation, and that the same spiritual gifts are given to both men and women for service. We believe that the gifts and callings of God are given to both men and women and are intended for the building up of the body of Christ. Therefore, the elders of Irving Bible Church affirm that both men and women are scripturally qualified, spiritually gifted, and divinely called to serve and lead side by side in every area in the life of the church. This includes roles of teaching and spiritual leadership as they faithfully use their gifts to advance the cause of Christ’s kingdom in the world.
