Who Preaches the Easter Message?

Some memes are funny and accurate. Other memes are misleading or even dishonest.
There is a meme that starts to make rounds around Easter each year that says something like, “In the interest of biblical accuracy, all preaching about the resurrection this Easter Sunday will be done by women.”
One does not have to appeal to the more obvious texts that address the question of women preaching (like 1 Timothy 2:9-15) to see how false this meme is.
Just go to the accounts of the resurrection in the gospels. What do we do find?
Do we find women having private conversations about what they saw at the empty tomb? Yes.
Do we find women leading gathered assemblies as public preachers/teachers? Absolutely not.
In other words, the resurrection accounts change nothing with regard to what is fitting, permissible, and appropriate in church life.
Jesus himself is the primary public proclaimer of the resurrection on Easter Sunday. And he is the one who presides over the Eucharistic meal on Easter Sunday. In the post-resurrection era, liturgical leadership is still masculine.
The resurrection does not overthrow God’s original created order in which men and women have distinct roles. The resurrection restores and glorifies that created order. Beware of memes that have the appearance of cleverness but contradict the plain teaching of Scripture.
Any Christian, male or female, young or old, can proclaim the gospel in private life. But only qualified ordained men can teach and exercise authority in the context of the church. Thus saith the Lord.
