Ideas Have Consequences
By: Dr. Mimi Haddad, President of CBE International | March 5, 2012
From its incorporation, CBE has endeavored to understand why so many Christian women have encountered abuse, and how the church might respond.
Book Review: Junia is Not Alone
By: Liz Sykes | March 5, 2012

Book Review: Mark and Grace Driscoll's Real Marriage
By: Tim Krueger | March 5, 2012
It's ironic that even the Driscolls have learned through experience that the more egalitarian they are, the better their relationship. But, like many Christian writers on marriage, they haven't yet taken the step of fully embracing what Scripture, prayer, and experience confirm as true.
Celebrating Women's History Month
By: Mariel Mastrostefano | February 29, 2012
Christians for Biblical Equality will be celebrating Women’s History Month this March by telling the stories of women in the church. Many people believe that women have had little impact on the church, sitting silently as men directed their lives, both physically and spiritually. They think that while some women did rise up from their [...]
It's So Ingrained!!
By: Liz Sykes | February 28, 2012
This whole stereotyping of female and male behaviours begins in the cradle and never ends! Having had 4 sons and now, 6 grandsons we are surrounded by influences on boys which they just absorb without thought most of the time. Even though some of their parents try to instil values which are gender-free, the general populace, schools, [...]
From Complementarian to Egalitarian
By: Kristen Marble | February 22, 2012

Jesus said to her,“Stop clinging to Me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to My brethren and say to them, “I ascend to My Father and your Father, and My God and your God.” John 20:17 (NASB) On the evidence of two or three witnesses a matter shall be confirmed." ( [...]
Imaging the Biblical God
By: J. R. Daniel Kirk | February 15, 2012
Rachel Held Evans has drawn attention to John Piper’s recent declarations that Christianity has a masculine feel, and that this is, of course, great news for everyone–even women, whose feminine feel isn’t, apparently, part of what God intended for Christianity. Piper’s point is that God intentionally depicts himself in masculine imagery, and that this sets the [...]
On Jesus' Choosing Twelve Men
By: J. R. Daniel Kirk | February 15, 2012
In last week’s Arise, I responded to John Piper’s description of Christianity as a “masculine” religion. Today’s issue has to do with the significance of Jesus’ choosing of twelve men to be his disciples. This is one of several issues I take up in Jesus Have I Loved, but Paul?. The story within which this selection of the [...]
"I no longer live, but Christ lives in me"
By: Guest Author | February 13, 2012
To what extent does Christ's completed work on Calvary redeem all of life, and all of our relationships? If, as Scripture teaches, knowing Christ changes everything, should we expect and anticipate the power of the cross to renew our relationships as Christians? The early evangelicals asked similar questions—questions they answered with a high view [...]
