Underestimation is still an issue in the modern church.
Female musicians should not face more difficulties than men when aiming to be worship leaders because God loves men and women the same, leadership and worship are gifts that can be given to both genders, and people are living in a different context.
Leadership is a spiritual gift that can be given to anyone God wants to. Leadership in the church is serving and encourage others to serve. It is important to stop seeing leadership from the patriarchal view in which is just ruling over each other.
Why can't a woman be an example of service through worship?
Timothy 2:12 says, “I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man;[a] she must be quiet.” Paul wrote this to Timothy and his specific situation. The women in that church were not submitting to the authority, they were not acting godly and they were leading the church in a wrong path; that is the reason of why Paul wrote this. Besides, it is a personal view or a recommendation but it is not a command.
