Walking in Faith
By: Dr. Mimi Haddad, President of CBE International | December 26, 2007
Even before South Africa began to dismantle apartheid, Desmond Tutu did something very profound. Though he had no official platform or office, though he was without institutional power, he invited his opponents to join him. He treated them as colleagues who one day would work together as equals. His actions were prophetic and filled with [...]
Walk in Newness of Life
By: Dr. Mimi Haddad, President of CBE International | December 19, 2007
As Christians who are called to walk in newness of life, we oppose, rather than advance, the consequences of the fall. Most Christians I know eagerly resist death, pain in childbirth, and toiling against other thorns and thistles—all the results of sin. We are thankful for good medical care that prolongs our lives.

Women Shaped the Early Evangelical Movement
By: Dr. Mimi Haddad, President of CBE International | December 19, 2007
(Adapted from a paper given at the 2007 annual meeting of the Evangelical Theological Society) My interest in women and missions of the 1800s is reinvigorated, of late, by a number of experiences I’ve had lecturing at Christian colleges and seminaries around the county.

'...all that God dreamed up'
By: MaryAnn Nguyen-Kwok | December 14, 2007

God's Word is Powerful
By: Dr. Mimi Haddad, President of CBE International | December 12, 2007
As we prepare to celebrate the birth of Christ—the logos of God—we rejoice in God’s promise to us given in Isaiah 55:10-13. That Scripture, faithfully preached and interpreted, will accomplish all God desires according to God’s own purposes. The fruitful return of Scripture, faithfully delivered, is a pledge we cling to [...]
Sarah Grimké
By: Pamela R. Durso | December 5, 2007
Sarah’s contributions as an abolitionist and defender of women’s rights are remarkable given her personal background.
The Lesser Known Story Behind Today’s Christian Colleges
By: Dr. Mimi Haddad, President of CBE International | December 5, 2007
My interest in women and missions of the 1800s has been reinvigorated by several experiences I’ve had lecturing at Christian colleges and seminaries around the county.
A Dirty Word or Good News?
By: Liz Mosbo VerHage | December 5, 2007
I later learned that common conceptions of ‘evangelical’ were shaped by memories of fire and brimstone pre-millennial tent revivals, or perpetuated by negative caricatures of tele-evangelists or mega-church sales gimmicks asking for money.
Women Interpreters of the Bible
By: Marion Taylor, Heather E. Weir | December 5, 2007
Sarah Trimmer (1741–1810), Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811–1896), and Elizabeth Baxter (1837–1926) are three foremothers of faith who have left us an extensive legacy of published works.
“I Received My Commission From Him, Brother”
By: Jennifer Lynn Woodruff Tait | December 5, 2007
These were among the first women to find in Methodism a liberating power to preach the gospel, but they were not the last. A qualified openness to women as spiritual leaders and preachers carried over into early American Methodism
