For Christians seeking clarity on gender roles in faith

Addresses confusion about authority and submission beliefs

You will gain a deeper understanding of biblical equality

This thought-provoking book challenges traditional views on gender roles in Christianity.

Is it appropriate for a man to read a theological book written by a woman? Is a husband supposed to control his wife so she won't dominate him? Is a wife's chief purpose to help her husband achieve his goals? Should a woman earn a college degree, work outside the home, or be in a position of authority in a mixed workplace? Why are we asking these questions? Theologically conservative Christians want to embrace a biblical understanding of women and men, but the beliefs of Greeks, Romans, and Victorians have had undue influence on contemporary teaching. Damaging ideas and a narrow focus have created confusion for men and women alike. Rachel Green Miller believes that the dynamics of authority and submission are part of the biblical picture--but they aren't the whole picture. As she examines and corrects conservative teaching on gender, she draws out equally important themes in Scripture that will strengthen our relationship as co-laborers in the kingdom of God.
