Is Women’s Equality a Biblical Ideal?

Should women be allowed to lead in the church and the home? What does the Bible mean when it calls Eve “helper”? How do cultural beliefs devalue women? How can we foster women’s equality in other cultures? These are just some of the questions answered in Is Women’s Equality a Biblical Ideal? This five-part lecture series explores the biblical, historical, and social precedent for women’s shared leadership in the church, the home, and the world. Topics include Old and New Testament evidence of women’s leadership, women’s leadership in church history, understanding power dynamics, and working cross-culturally. Originally developed for NGOs, humanitarian organizations, and Christian leaders to effectively promote the full gifting, vocation, and authority of women throughout the world, this lecture series and companion workbook make a wonderful resource for both personal and group study.
