Abstract

New indigenous movements to Christ are taking place in many parts of the world today, especially in Asia and Africa, generally described as church-planting movements or disciple-making movements. There is significant diversity among these movements in terms of their origins, worship, practices, and languages. Movement leaders have come to different conclusions about the most appropriate ministry roles for women. Although it is impossible to know what share of movements are led by women, a significant number have women leaders as part of the movement’s natural growth and immediate needs. This article offers a descriptive analysis of women’s roles in emerging movements by considering examples from history and the present. How might women’s leadership within emerging movements today be challenged as these movements grow and potentially institutionalize? This article aims to provide historical context to that question to help Christians think clearly about the future as it relates to women’s leadership roles in new indigenous movements.
妇女、领导力和运动:对过去、现在和未来的批判性审视
在当今世界的许多地方,特别是在亚洲和非洲,正在发生新的本土基督运动,一般被称为教会植堂运动或门徒训练运动。这些运动在起源、敬拜、实践和语言方面都有很大的差异。运动领袖们对妇女最合适的事工角色得出了不同的结论。虽然我们不可能知道有多大比例的运动是由妇女领导的,但有相当多的运动有妇女领袖,这是运动自然发展和迫切需要的一部分。本文通过对历史和现在的实例进行分析,对妇女在新兴运动中的角色进行了描述性分析。随着新兴运动的发展和可能的制度化,妇女在新兴运动中的领导地位会受到怎样的挑战?本文旨在为这一问题提供历史背景,以帮助基督徒清楚地思考与妇女在新的本土运动中的领导角色有关的未来。
