I think many of us have seen the video of this message. We could hear with our own ears the degrading, haughty spirit with which Kangas spoke these words. Sorry co-workers, there is NO CONTEXT in which a man should speak about his wife with these words. The words "She is nothing" mean something. The words "She is no one" mean something. The words "She is just my wife" mean something.

I/We now realize that, historically, with such speaking and indeed treatment of women, those of us in Leadership have cultivated a culture of abuse in the churches. To all of you, men and women, I offer my sincere repentance for this terrible misrepresentation of God’s Word and God’s heart toward all of those for whom he gave his Son.
