Preaching Sexism Isn’t Pretty

Pastor Stewart-Allen Clark made national news after he told women from the pulpit that they needed to “look less butch” to prevent their husbands from straying. He also told husbands to play the Scripture card if their wives “weren’t in the mood.” After his sermon was posted online, the response was swift. His own denomination, the General Baptist released a statement saying that Pastor’s Clark’s sermon was “not consistent with the positions and values” of the organization. “General Baptists believe that every woman was created in the image of God, and they should be valued for that reason. Furthermore, we believe that all individuals regardless of any other factors are so loved by God that Christ died for them.”

Pastor Clark has taken a leave of absence from his Missouri church. Read more about the sermon and the backlash HERE.
