On Why I Still Need You to Defend Me
By: Hannah Swithinbank | May 8, 2013
In an ideal world, I’d be able to say, "You know, I don’t need a man to defend the right of women to be in leadership or in ministry." But we don’t live in an ideal world.
Respect
By: Susanna Krizo | May 5, 2013
Why is it so difficult for us to be respectful towards other humans? For example, why do we think children deserve less respect than grownups, and why do men get more respect than women?
Why I Can No Longer Defend the Ministry of Women in the Church
By: Stephen R. Holmes | May 1, 2013
I have defended the ministry of women in the church in public for a while now, including on my blog. I don’t think I can do it any longer. Not because of any lack of calling or gifting in their ministry, but because of a lack in mine.
It Works Both Ways
By: Liz Sykes | April 30, 2013
I would suggest that most, if not all, women would have been the subject of ridicule in some form or other simply because of their gender. Sometimes it is felt even without words – the scorn, belittling behaviour and condescension. Then of course we know of the way many men talk of their mothers, wives, sisters [...]
No Middle Road
By: Krista Wilson | April 24, 2013
“Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith.” (Hebrews 12:1-2a)

By: Naomi Krueger | April 23, 2013
The blogosphere is buzzing with backlash about recent articles that are advocating for “young marriage.” Apparently, the millennials (18-29 yr olds), my generation, have a low marriage rate at 21 percent in the U.S., compared to other generations during this age range.I posed a question on my Facebook status to my unmarried or later-married [...]
Give us Eyes to See and Ears to Hear
By: Dr. Mimi Haddad, President of CBE International | April 17, 2013
Twenty-three years ago an economist from India, Amartya Sen, reported the largest human holocaust in all of history. His research showed that over 100 million females were missing! Though Sen was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his work, few were mobilized by the horror he had uncovered. Even the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalists Kristoff and WuDunn [...]
Small Steps to Change
By: Liz Sykes | April 16, 2013
This photo is of an apple…….no question about that. Now it’s cut we can see inside but before then we had no idea what was inside. So it is with people…..we can assume things without knowing ‘what’s inside’. There’s an old saying ‘don’t judge a book by its cover’, [...]
Speak Up!
By: Hannah Rasmussen | April 10, 2013
At a conference recently, a poet performed several poems about sexual violence, acknowledging that as a man he would not speak on behalf of women, but would hold other men accountable. A member of the audience stood and responded: “I am working class, a woman of color, and a political minority. I feel like I [...]
Is Real Faith Getting Skewed Today
By: TL K. | April 10, 2013
There are a number of ways that godly faith in the God who is GOD, the REAL Messiah and the ONLY HOLY Spirit can get skewed is when humans step in to contain and control. I believe that what I’m going to say needs to be said and spread. I’d like to see [...]
