God as Mother, Not Mother as God: A Biblical Feminist Response to the “New Feminism”
By: Aída Besançon Spencer | October 31, 1991
Can evangelical feminism be saved from secular feminism? In response, I propose that many of the needs and the bases for feminism come from God and God's followers.

Biblical Feminism: A Christian Response to Sexism
By: Gretchen Gaebelein Hull | July 30, 1991
Biblical feminists see feminism not only as a social-justice issue but also as an issue of religious freedom. To the goals of political, economic, and societal equality of the sexes, biblical feminists add religious equality.
