“There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” Galatians 3:28
Who We Are
God's plan is equal partnership. We are working to make it happen
Scripture teaches the fundamental equality of women and men of all ethnic groups, all economic classes, and all age groups, based on the teachings of Scriptures (e.g., Galatians 3:28). Through misinterpreted and mistranslated Bible texts, girls and women are devalued, and women’s equality, humanity, and leadership are undermined. Christian patriarchy not only marginalizes God’s gifts to women, it also places girls and women at risk for abuse.
