Conference in Phnom Penh Cambodia
By: Dr. Mimi Haddad, President of CBE International | May 22, 2013
From 1975-1979, the communist regime—known as the Khmer Rouge—devastated Cambodia, killing nearly 25% of the population. Men, women, and children were marched at gun point to isolated labor camps known as the “killing fields,” while tens of thousands of others were executed in jails and prisons. Completely destabilized as a culture, Cambodia became easy prey [...]
Is Egalitarianism on a Slippery Slope?
By: David C. Cramer | May 15, 2013
I don’t know about you, but I have evangelical friends with all kinds of different views on gender. Come to think of it, I have evangelical friends with all kinds of different views on a whole host of topics: child baptism or believers’ baptism, “just war” theory or pacifism, Arminianism or Calvinism, and, yes, [...]

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.

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.
Book Review: The Tie That Binds: A Marriage Revolution of Love
By: Susan Harris Howell | May 1, 2013
In The Tie That Binds, the author, Debra White Smith, provides some excellent advice, like respecting each partner’s unique gifts, and focusing on scripture rather than the gender stereotypes of our culture.

Assessing Hierarchist Logic: Is Egalitarianism Really on a Slippery Slope?
By: David C. Cramer | April 30, 2013
Within the hierarchical camp, there exists a vocal and influential minority of strongly hierarchist scholars who argue that a commitment to egalitarianism does indeed undermine one’s evangelical commitment. But, since many of us either are or at least know strongly committed egalitarian evangelicals, this argument seems strange.
Editor's Reflections | Spring 2013 (27.2)
By: William David Spencer | April 30, 2013
By the time he wrote the letter we call 1 Corinthians, Paul was obviously becoming exasperated with the saints at Corinth. After his ever cordial and didactic greetings—reminding them that their calling and sanctification in the Lord is not unique to them, but it is a privilege that they share with other Christians everywhere (1 Cor 1:2)— [...]
