Sins of Omission: Searching for the Whole Truth in Genesis 17 and 18
By: Camille S. Muir | July 31, 1995
The story in Genesis 17 and 18 of the Lord’s telling first Abraham and then Sarah that they would have a son in their old age is one of the places in Scripture where a “sin of omission” is often committed.

The Scandal Of The (Male) Evangelical Mind
By: Mary Stewart Van Leeuwen | July 31, 1995
The scandal of the evangelical mind, Mark Noll tells us, “is that there is not much of an evangelical mind." The reasons he lists for this are many, and include evangelical over-emphasis on the emotionally-charged experience of conversion, an overly-populist approach to evangelism, a preoccupation with personal sanctification to the exclusion of concern for creation, [...]

Book Review: The Scandal of the Evangelical Mind
By: Mary Stewart Van Leeuwen | July 31, 1995
The scandal of the evangelical mind, Mark Noll tells us, "is that there is not much of an evangelical mind" (p.3). The reasons he lists for this are many, and include evangelical over-emphasis on the emotionally-charged experience of conversion, an overly-populist approach to evangelism, a preoccupation with personal sanctification to the exclusion of concern for [...]

Lament
By: Celeste Schroeder | April 30, 1995
Rendered invisible it has happened just too many times times two squared and more. Even worse is being rendered visible but not really important. Your voice is not really that important they say. It doesn’t have the right credentials, Many books behind you ... a following... or enough degrees, or how could you really have [...]

A New Testament Perspective on the Treatment of “Everywoman”
By: Gretchen Gaebelein Hull | April 30, 1995
Chapters 17 through 21 of the Book of Judges record the depths of social depravity in possibly Scripture’s clearest depiction of the flaws of a patriarchal society. These chapters truly show the ultimate in degradation: idolatry, pride, selfishness, moral perversion, and insensitivity to human life. Chapters 19-21 also reveal the most awful violations of the human [...]

Jesus Calls Us
By: Julia Ann Flora | April 30, 1995
This is the centenary year marking the death on October 12 of Cecil Frances Alexander, one of the greatest women hymn writers. Her funeral in Londonderry attracted a great crowd from all of Great Britain to pay tribute to this noble woman.

Two-Headed Leadership Monster Or An Equal Partnership?
By: Jan Huffaker | April 30, 1995
Who says dual leadership won’t work?? Who says some one person has to make the ultimate decision? This is not a “truth” that I find explicitly stated in Scripture, nor is it one that has panned out in real life in every case. I would suggest that it is in the category of “old-husbands’ [...]

Believing the Right Thing
By: Kathryn E. Stegall | April 30, 1995
I was confronted with the need to exercise my faith to believe that by his rich grace God had made me alive in Christ so that I was no longer a foreigner and alien in the church but never quite a brother or fellow citizen either.

Book Review: Women in the Church: A Fresh Analysis of 1 Timothy 2:9-15
By: John E. Stanley | April 30, 1995
Women in the Church is a dangerous book which should not have been published because, while it appears to be scholarly, it actually teems with historical and theological errors and also emotional subjectivity. Alan G. Padgett has provided a critical rebuttal to Women in the Church in the Winter 1997 issue of Priscilla Papers.

Women in God's Plan
By: J. Bruce Kilmer | January 31, 1995
The Old Testament teaches us much about the nature of God. It is the inspired record of God working out his eternal plan for us. From the Old Testament we learn about God’s long-suffering, loving, merciful nature. We see the beginning of his plan for our redemption. The God revealed to us in the [...]
