Recovering biblical manhood and womanhood

Recovering biblical manhood and womanhood

By John Piper

Book Description

This comprehensive 566-page volume brings together twenty-two Christian scholars and writers to address one of the most significant theological discussions of recent decades. As evangelical feminism has gained influence within Christian communities, questions about the biblical understanding of gender roles have become increasingly complex and consequential.

The contributors to this work offer a systematic examination of scripture passages central to debates about men and women's roles in marriage, church leadership, and broader society. Rather than providing abstract theological arguments alone, the book bridges scholarly analysis with practical guidance for everyday Christian living.

Readers will encounter detailed biblical interpretation alongside accessible applications for contemporary life. The authors tackle fundamental questions about how Christians should understand gender distinctions and relationships according to scriptural teaching. Each contribution aims to provide clarity on passages that have sparked considerable debate within evangelical circles.

Whether you serve in church leadership, seek to strengthen your marriage, or simply want to develop a more informed biblical worldview on gender, this resource offers extensive exploration of relevant scriptural texts. The book addresses concerns that affect Christian families, congregations, and communities as they navigate questions about complementary roles for men and women.

For those wrestling with how biblical principles apply to modern relationships and responsibilities, this collaborative work provides thorough engagement with scripture and thoughtful consideration of its implications for Christian living today.
