Met with Dancing
By: Lynn Cohick | July 31, 2007

Gender Injustice Destroys the Whole Family
By: Medad Birungi | April 30, 2007
I have had a burden for women for about ten years, but, with my African background of marginalization and oppression of women, I had failed to stand alone and fight for equality until I discovered Christians for Biblical Equality. My burden for women was burning because of the oppression my own mother went through.
