Concerning women as ministers of any type God most certainly uses women to preach the gospel, for example the first persons to preach the resurrection were women see Matthew 28:10; Mark 16:7 these were woman who went to the tomb and were told not only by angels but by Jesus Himself. Now look at 2nd John chapter 1, John is the elder and the elect lady was the pastor she had a church in her home. Now go to Romans 16 and you will find Paul talking about Phebe a minister in the church (and yes I know what is meant by minister, a Christian teacher and pastor) now pay attention as to the way Paul introduces Priscilla and Aquila the female is named first this is not customarily done which leads the reader to believe that Priscilla was the pastor over that church. There are many more instances of women leaders in the church but these are just a few.
