An Egalitarian Guide to Chivalry
By: Jon Trott | June 5, 2004
I’m a fairly egalitarian male; some would say I’m hyper-sensitive regarding unequal treatment of women in the church and in society. But when it comes to the traditional chivalrous role the male gets to play ... I confess I enjoy it.
Is God Masculine?
By: Alan G. Padgett | October 31, 2002
While agreeing that God is not male, some tradition-minded Christians have taught that God is masculine. The difference here is that God may represent a kind of masculine spiritual principle without being “male” in the literal sense. The purpose of this article is to refute this idea
When the Shoe Was on the Other Foot
By: Dan Gentry Kent | June 6, 2001
As a male, I recently had an experience that involved gender stereotyping, from which I learned a lot. For one thing, I learned a bit about how my sisters have so often felt. There was a meeting in a major Southern city to plan for a large women’s conference. There were 62 women in [...]
The Marginalized Male
By: Bradley Harris | December 5, 2000
“Delighted” would accurately describe my reaction to discovering Christians for Biblical Equality. I’m a man who knows something about marginalization and alienation — two themes central to CBE’s concerns.
Women Keep Promises, Too! Or, Christian Life is for Both Men and Women
By: Rebecca Merrill Groothuis, Douglas Groothuis | April 30, 1997
Perhaps we ought to express amazement not only at the size and success of Promise Keepers, but also that the idea of someone keeping his promises should be considered so revolutionary as to start a movement! Perhaps we should pause to ponder what kind of church we have become, now that many Christian men [...]
Promise Keepers and the Third Wall
By: Austin H. Stouffer | April 30, 1997
Promise Keepers, I beg of you: Seriously, biblically, prayerfully, consider the unprecedented impact your organization could have in tearing down this remaining wall: gender inequality.
The Direction of Promise Keepers: A Response to Papers on "Religion, Sports and Manhood"
By: Mary Stewart Van Leeuwen | April 30, 1997
Much of my research is aimed at addressing a central question: Is Promise Keepers anti-feminist?
Promise Keepers: A Volunteer's Perspective
By: Faith Martin | April 30, 1997
“Why don’t you attend as a volunteer, and then we can observe the rally from different angles.” This was Mary Stewart Van Leeuwen’s suggestion. She was coming to Pittsburgh to report for Books and Culture on the 1996 Promise Keepers’ rally to be held at Three Rivers Stadium. Mary would be there in an [...]
From the Trenches: Promise Keepers as an Example of Category-Specific Discipleship
By: Susan Finck-Lockhart | April 30, 1997
If Promise Keepers is a part of God’s strategy to unite his Body across racial and denominational differences and to bring his revival to our nation, then some challenging questions are: How can we as biblical feminists join with God through our view of Promise Keepers, our intercession on their behalf, and what we [...]
Defining the New Christian Man
By: William H. Lockhart | April 30, 1997
As the role of men in families is debated in America, since 1991 the rapidly expanding evangelical (Promise Keepers) men’s movement has sponsored conferences filling major sports stadiums. Christian bookstores are creating new “men’s" sections for the many new books on masculinity being produced by most of the conservative Protestant publishing houses. A survey [...]
