Is There a Biblical Feminism?
By: Rebecca Pentz | October 31, 1989
Whereas I see no need to defend, only to lament, the sexism of Christendom, I do think feminine Christians should think again about what Jesus himself taught. Jesus was a man. How did his maleness affect how he related to, and what he taught about, women?
Ten Lies the Church Tells Women
By: J. Lee Grady | June 5, 2003
I’ve identified 10 erroneous views about women that have been circulated in the church, preached from pulpits and written in the study notes of popular Bible translations for too long. I believe we must debunk these lies if we want to see the church released to fulfill the Great Commission.

Don’t be afraid to be big, women. That’s what I learned at a conference this weekend. Women are taught to be small.

Significantly, gender essentialism is not a biblical [...]
Instinctively Egalitarian: Signs of Encouragement from Australia
By: Denise Cooper-Clarke | September 5, 2013
Whether in Darwin, Sydney, or Melbourne, there is work to be done when it comes to fully incorporating the gifts of women into the body of Christ. Life is not “as good as it gets” for women, but there are clear signs of hope.
I am Sarah, Fully Human
By: Sarah Schwartz | March 28, 2014
Some days you can handle sexism, and other days, you retreat to cry in the bathroom like the true liberated woman you are.
