Sharing Humanity, Not Neutralizing Gender
By: Dr. Mimi Haddad, President of CBE International | September 5, 2015

Editor's Note: Female, Male, and Humanity
By: Tim Krueger | September 5, 2015

Becoming New: Man and Woman Together in Christ
By: Dr. Mimi Haddad, President of CBE International | June 5, 2015
Galatians 3:27–29 is a central text for Paul. To be baptized into Christ is to imitate Christ, in whom social hierarchies and animosity are overcome.

Oneness in Christ
By: Dr. Mimi Haddad, President of CBE International | December 5, 2014
The Genesis texts offer an exquisite challenge to the historic devaluation of women. In fact, both egalitarians and complementarians agree that the early chapters of Genesis establish the equal value and worth of females and males.
