solid reformed Biblical female teachers .... oxymoron?
LOL. I've never heard of such a thing. If they were reformed, they woudn't be preaching. So, I would say no. There is no such thing as a "solid reformed female preacher." (Which by the way is unbiblical.)

Solidly reformed and female teachers? The Reformed understanding of ecclesiastical authority is that women have not been appointed as teachers in the Church. Is there any reason why you don't want to listen to sermons for women by men?Are there any solid reformed Biblical female teachers ? I would like to start listening to sermons for women by women, but am not really able to find much at all...

Before we jump, gents...let's find out what she may mean. Sometimes things can be worded in such a way that appears different than that which is meant.
Jenn, are you speaking of teachers in the church, female preachers, or just women that speak and write for women outside of formal teaching within the church?

I don't see how it was "jumping." She said she was looking for "sermons" by "female teachers." What other context would a teacher who is giving sermons fall under?

If they are truly Reformed......you will not find them. We do find in the English Reformation, women who did teach other women (those new to the faith in particular) this still does happen.......as far as a woman wielding a large audience within the context of teaching/preaching.....that can become dangerous ground. In a Church or home Bible study I have no problems with women using Church approaved material for that. Beyond that issues that are far from orthodox can pop up. It is an issue that must be broached with care and prayer. Grace and Peace

I do not believe that women have authority over men, which is why i said women for women. I didn't say pastor or whatever titles there may be....
I will rephrase - a woman who teaches women. That happens ...There are women who teach women like Nancy Leigh Demoss and Beth Moore...

Hi Josh! Tada's father was an Anglican Priest (REC), her teaching is pretty much of a devotional nature, she does not try to "grab the pulpit".

With all due respect, you said "sermons" and the word "preachers" was in the title of the post. Sermons are given by pastors, and preachers are pastors. I don't think our responses were unwarranted "assumptions." I can't speak for anyone else, but I was just trying to answer gently based on the info that you provided in the OP.

2 Timothy 2:24-25
Wow! All that to get a few answers.
I actually like reading stuff that Starr Meade writes on the education and catechism of children.
I don't know who wrote The Excellent Wife but my wife has shared with me what the woman writes and it is Biblically sound.

I don't know much about them, but what about Martha Pearce and Kay Arthur?
Puritanboard Doctor
Kay Arthur is dispensational (see her book Israel, My Beloved). I PERSONALLY don't like her studies...dropped out of one class; her obsession with marking up the passage with symbols destroyed the actual study of the text for me.
Martha Peace, I liked...but I had a newer version of her book. One of the gents on here spoke against her due to something initially published in the earlier edition of the book. Good book, might want to read with caution...I have not had the op to do a re-go-over of her book. She also wrote Becoming a Titus 2 Woman.
