StoryLife Church? Paula White Ministries? I can probably stop right there. Paul wrote against essentially taking credit for the work of God.
Or the easy one. Women are to not to speak in church.
"the women are to keep silent in the churches; for they are not permitted to speak, but are to subject themselves, just as the Law also says. If they desire to learn anything, let them ask their own husbands at home; for it is improper for a woman to speak in church."
"But I do not allow a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet. For it was Adam who was first created, and then Eve. And it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a wrongdoer."
This is quite clear and not a negotiation, and even gives context as to why. A "church" run by a woman is simply not a Christian church.

Amen! Pastor J. Vernon McGee also used these and other verses to illustrate this point.
