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 part 2, I look at the two texts Troy Martin uses to support his “testicle” idea, at ancient Jewish texts that mention the Watchers, and at what Paul meant by “nature teaches” (1 Cor. 11:14).
With some trepidation, I critique Troy Martin’s idea that peribolaion means testicle in 1 Cor. 11:15 and his idea that Paul thought hair is a conduit of semen.
I look at how Paul uses the phrase “in everything” in his letters and at what it means in, “wives submit to your husbands in everything.”
Here are five of my all-time favourite blog posts (not written by me), plus a fantastic series. They all critique, in some way, attitudes held by many Christians about the supposed roles of women and men.
In this short blog post (less than 400 words), I address persistent and common misconceptions about Christian egalitarianism or mutualism.
What did the Samaritan woman mean when she told the folk of Sychar, “Come, see a man who told me ‘everything I ever did'”?
March 20 is the saints day of Photini (AKA the Samaritan woman) in the Eastern Orthodox Church.
In Orthodox Churches, she's venerated as a saint and as "equal to the apostles."
In other churches, she's mostly regarded as a sinner.
I look at her story here.

Close examination of death certificates from 2022 revealed that yes, Australia had many COVID deaths. >8x the road toll. In all age groups, not just the not so old over 65’s.
How long are we going to pretend it didn’t/isn’t happening?
