As iron sharpens iron,

“Keith… knew just where we were at all times in the order of service. A few minutes in, he reached down and lowered the kneeling bench like he’d built it.” - Beth Moore
“In an email to Religion News Service, Moore didn’t go quite so far as to say she has entirely abandoned complementarianism. But she no longer sees it as essential.” - RNS
