Card Sort: Women Priests - Arguments For & Against

The issue of whether women should be priests has divided the Christian community for a long time. This great resource is designed to help students understand some of the main arguments put forward by both sides. It can be used with a range of abilities and has never failed to get my students excited, engaged, whilst improving their understanding of the topic. It be used alongside any main stream text book or video clip as a starter, mini plenary or a consolidation exercise.
