Male & Female

A THOUGHTFUL PURSUIT OF ANSWERS TO THE TOUGHEST GENDER QUESTIONS

Male and Female is for those with curiosity about what it means to be male and female today-and with courage to follow where the evidence leads. Make no mistake about it: this exploration calls for courage. Led by Renee Webb Sproles, the team of writers for Male and Female delve into such questions as:

Is someone's gender set for life-or is it socially constructed? Does the Bible really teach wives to submit to their husbands? How can churches be a place where men and women are equally valued?

This book is a user-friendly, topical guidebook, so that you can explore your questions as they arise. Sproles has brought together a team of experts in biblical scholarship, cultural trends, church leadership, and counseling in order to put together a God-honoring resource that encourages curiosity and cultivates courage.
