Biological Determinism and the "Oughtness" of Manhood
By: Aaron Sathyanesan | August 12, 2015
“You are nothing but a product of your biology.” I’ve heard this statement in different forms over the years, from popular media to large volumes of scholarly work, from the progressive left and the traditionalist right, from scientist and non-scientist alike. The specific mode of thinking—that your genes ultimately determine your identity, and [...]
Gifts of My Father
By: Emmaline Kempf | June 22, 2015
Growing up, I watched both of my parents exercise their gifts, alternatively flourishing and struggling with the expectations of society and the church for husbands, wives, and parents. My mom would be considered the spiritual leader of the family—she is always quick to share what God is teaching her with the rest of us. [...]
More Than the Legs of A Man
By: Amy R. Buckley | May 20, 2015
"He does not delight in the strength of the horse; He does not take pleasure in the legs of a man" (Ps. 147:10 NASB). Dad looked to it as a reminder that his identity wasn't in designing custom homes, skillful carpentry, or owning a successful construction company.
Book Review: Malestrom: Manhood Swept Into the Currents of a Changing World
By: Susan Larson | May 14, 2015
Manhood is under siege and not because there are women in the board room and men in the laundry room. The crisis that threatens men has ancient roots according to James, and the only real solution is to recapture the even more ancient imago dei we find revealed in those first two chapters of Genesis.
Unity Over Masculinity
By: W. Tali Hairston | April 22, 2015
Men and women are not cast aside, diminished, or deleted when we embrace biblical unity, unity with God and with each other. Unity is provided for in the resurrection, but it does require the definition of masculinity to submit to Jesus' prayer for unity.
Happy International Men's Day
By: Hannah Rasmussen | November 19, 2014
Who made me into the advocate for women that I am today? I wouldn’t be an intelligent and compassionate spokesperson but for so many great men in my life. Today, I want to thank them. They really deserve the credit for developing me as a leader.
My Constant Ally: A (slightly belated) Father's Day reflection
By: Florkime Paye | June 16, 2014
Father’s Day is a great opportunity to thank the men around us for the job they have done raising us. My experience is no different. My father has been a great influence in my life, and as I grow older into a strong woman who fights the hold of patriarchy, I cannot help but [...]
Identity Crisis: Man Up
By: Anthony Bankes | May 14, 2014
Don't tell me to man up. You can tell me to step up, or buck up, or cheer up, but don't you dare tell me to man up. And here's why.
Male and Female: One Image, One Purpose
By: Dr. Mimi Haddad, President of CBE International | April 16, 2014
Those who believe that gender is the most important aspect of personhood are called "gender essentialists." For them, maleness or femaleness is an attribute that shapes the fundamental meaning and purpose of life, a view that, sadly, drives gender hierarchy in the world and also in the church. Significantly, gender essentialism is not a biblical [...]
