Here you’ll find articles about the mutuality and equality of men and women in Christian marriage and ministry, plus Bible studies and articles about our new life in Jesus. Take a look around.

Would you like to support my ministry of encouraging mutuality and equality between men and women in the church and in marriage?
In this article I briefly exlain why 1 Timothy 2:12 (“I do not allow a woman to teach …”), the only verse in the Bible that places a restriction on a woman teaching, shouldn’t be used as the proof text on the topic of women Bible teachers. (I wrote this article as an op-ed piece for The Christian Post an online Christian newspaper based in the USA.)
In his new book, The Bible vs. Biblical Womanhood, Philip Payne outlines 3 reasons why Paul’s concern in 1 Corinthians 11:2–16 was not head coverings for women, but hairstyles.
Lately, I’ve been hearing some suggest the reason Jesus chose only men to be among the Twelve is because he knew the harsh persecution the Twelve would face. Is this reason valid?
In this article, I look at every verse where Jesus directly addresses a woman as “woman.” These verses can sound cold and even rude in English. This article was first published in Mutuality magazine.
In early Syriac texts (2nd–4th centuries), the Holy Spirit and even God are described using feminine and maternal imagery. In this article, I quote from these texts.
What did Paul mean when he said “husband of one wife”? What was Priscilla’s role in Ephesus and Rome? What is Paul’s overall theology of ministry and women?
