Battle for the Minds

Battle for the Minds

Documentarian Steven Lipscomb explores an intense rivalry between two divergent factions of Southern Baptists. The more conservative Christians, who oppose the idea of women becoming religious leaders, find themselves at odds with the more progressive group, who want to see females leading services. Lipscomb interviews those on both side of the debate, including his own mother, who hopes to maintain a longstanding family tradition by becoming a Baptist pastor herself.
