By: Christa L. McKirland | June 17, 2013
I grew up in a Southern Baptist mega-church in Georgia where my dad served, and still serves, as an associate pastor. My mom, an attorney, has served alongside him my entire life. At a very young age I had a clear sense of God’s love and desired a relationship with him. I began asking [...]

By: Andy Motz | June 15, 2013
My passion for gender equality stems from the fact that I had never heard the male-leadership perspective on marriage and ministry until I came to Biola.

President's Message: Submissive or Strong Rescue?
By: Dr. Mimi Haddad, President of CBE International | June 5, 2013
None of these women waited for men to take the initiative. Instead, they lived out their created purpose as strong rescuers.
Short Answers to Tough Questions: How are Christians to understand the imagery of Israel as God’s unfaithful wife, and what is the relevance of the divine-human marriage metaphor in our lives today?
By: Havilah Dharamraj | June 5, 2013
Q: An ever-present “woman” in the Old Testament is Israel, God’s metaphorical wife. How are Christians to understand the imagery of Israel as God’s unfaithful wife, and what is the relevance of the divine-human marriage metaphor in our lives today?
Skirts, Spatulas, & Surrender
By: Elizabeth Drummond | June 5, 2013
Hannah was a young woman with deep desires and a love for God. Like me, she was broken and weary. She cried out to God, deeply wounded by the fact that she could not live up to her community’s expectation for women: motherhood.
Womb Currency
By: Charity Kroeker | June 5, 2013
A womb, the currency of the day. Trade. Hagar’s womb: tilled soil. Gentile, slave, used and thrown away.
