What makes a women speaking at the pulpit teaching ... and not preaching ...
Or at the supermarket for that matter?

Dan that is actually a great question and one that I have pondered many times.. until I see Paul basically giving us the description of preaching
Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
Notive the punctuation after PREACH THE WORD.. he is continuing the thought.. and thus the explanation of PREACHING THE WORD ---REPROVING, by the way look up the original meaning of reproving a pretty powerful word,, very authorative..... REBUKE - should a sister ever rebuke a man of God? Preaching is also exhorting with doctrine...... doctrine brings correction of our error.. should a sister ever be correcting a man of God in scripture?
thanks
