This episode of We Are Vineyard is a continuation of our miniseries on preaching hosted by Adam Russell (Lead Pastor of Vineyard Campbellsville in KY and Director of Vineyard Worship) and Ted Kim (Lead Pastor of Evanston Vineyard in IL). Today’s guest is Melanie Forsythe-Lee, Lead Pastor of LIFE Vineyard Church in Columbus, OH and leader of Vineyard USA’s Women’s Association. In this episode, Melanie shares about finding her voice as a young female pastor and how that was influenced by becoming a mother, the differing approach to female pastors in Australia vs. the US, and some of the practical barriers to women preaching. Melanie talks about the changes she’s seen in Vineyard USA over the past 30 years regarding female pastors, and she shares some advice both to women who feel called to preach and men who are in a position to mentor and platform female preachers.
