Book Review: Recovering from Biblical Manhood and Womanhood: How the Church Needs to Rediscover Her Purpose
By: Kurty Darling | August 4, 2020
I would not recommend this book to someone who is firmly egalitarian. If someone is just starting to examine gender assumptions in a complementarian environment, this book may be a potential resource.
The Gospel According to Eve: A History of Women’s Interpretation
By: Allison Quient | July 31, 2020
The Gospel According to Eve is a valuable resource for any egalitarian to have in their library. I also recommend it as assigned reading as part of a larger treatment or course on the history of interpretation.
Men and Women in Christ: Fresh Light from the Biblical Texts
By: Laura Spicer Martin | July 31, 2020
Andrew Bartlett’s Men and Women in Christ is a tremendously helpful contribution to the debate that rages in evangelicalism over the “roles” of women.

Book Review: Altogether Lovely: A Thematic and Intertextual Reading of the Song of Songs
By: Elizabeth Ann R. Willett | May 12, 2020
Dharamraj reads the Song of Songs intertextually with the prophetic texts; within a literary culture, texts grow out of a shared linguistic, aesthetic, and ideological substratum, and then influence the interpretation of each other when they are read together.
A Book for Every Week of Women’s History Month
By: Ellen Richard Vosburg | March 4, 2020
Women's History Month is all about focusing on the ways women have been integral players in history, whether we know about them or not.
