Living Post-Fall: Practical Redemption

By: Sarah Ago | March 29, 2016

It’s not fair, we might think! If only they had not eaten of the fruit, men and women would be serving side-by-side without the scourge of dominance to distort their view of one another.

A Vision of Equal Wheels: The gender debates and women’s identity

By: Tania Harris | March 5, 2016

Both men and women take responsibility for God’s vision for their life. Both parties express their gifts and callings without restriction.

The Unsuspecting Egalitarians: An Unintentional Journey Toward Egalitarianism

By: Catherine Jacobson | December 5, 2015

Mark and I never meant to become egalitarians, at least not until we discovered we already were. This is the story of the long, winding road to recognize and gratefully celebrate that we are egalitarians. In retrospect, we were on that journey from the very first.

How I Submit to My Wife: Why a Feminist with a Hairy Chest Chose to Take His Beloved’s Last Name

By: Nicholas Quient | December 5, 2015

I saw mutual submission as required for marriage, and I believe that it was the strongest measure of what I could do: I give of myself to her, and I honor her, by esteeming her heritage, her culture, her family, by taking her last name.

Just Friends? Intertwined Building Blocks of Friendship and Marriage

By: Anthony Bankes | December 5, 2015

Marriage and friendship aren’t in competition. They aren’t two separate concepts on opposite sides of space, racing against each other to cross the finish line. They’re interconnected and intertwined, constantly intersecting to reveal a breathtaking paradigm of mutuality.
