Description: A controversy of major proportions has spread through the church. Recent generations bear witness to the rise of "evangelical feminism"—a movement that has had a profound impact on all of life, challenging some of our basic Christian beliefs.
In this new edition of an influential and award-winning best-seller, more than twenty men and women have committed their talents to produce the most thorough response yet to this modern movement. Combining systematic argumentation with popular application, this volume deals with all of the main passages of Scripture brought forward in this controversy regarding gender-based role differences.
Anyone concerned with the fundamental question of the proper relationship between men and women in home, church, and society will want to read this book. New preface included.
Details: I haven't finished this book yet, however I'm learning a lot from it.
In many ways the material confirms my own position on these matters.
But the clear Scriptural references that are given are very helpful in explaining the basic thoughts.
I can recommend this book and I hope it will help many people with the aspect of male leadership both in the family as well as in the church.
I'm very pleased that it makes it very clear that it is not a matter of playing the boss, but instead stresses the special responsibilities the man has towards women in general and his wife and children specifically.

Details: Very interesting but lots of words-I am not done reading it yet. Well written and John Piper is one of my favorite authors so I know it will be great.
Review Summary: Not Biblical according to original Greek texts, grammar and Bible context.

Details: Please get yourself a copy of the DVD set - "Women in Ministry, silenced or set free" - by MMoutreach (available at Amazon or MMoutreach).
For a TRUE and thorough Bible study on this subject, please view "Women in Ministry, silenced or set free" - by MMoutreach.
Very thorough, and examines this subject from Genesis onwards......
In these DVD's, many teachings and opinions from the Council of Biblical Manhood and Womanhood are clearly challenged, and absolutely refuted by thorough scriptural studies of the original manuscripts in the greek and the original grammar.
These are done in absolute context, and are compared with the teachings of the entire Bible - so that the truth of this matter rings out loud and clear to anyone who will seek to know it.
Review Summary: Very good book that refutes the errors of evangelical feminism
Date: 2008-01-19
Details: Recovering Biblical Manhood and Womanhood is a much needed response to the 20 and 21st century evangelical church disregarding the clear commands of Scripture. It seems as though a whole cottage industry of Evangelical feminist publications has been established to try to argue against what the Bible so clearly states - that God created both men and women in His own image(so that they both have worth and equal value), BUT He also created them different and with different roles to complement each other and in the home and in the church God established that men should lovingly lead. God's created order is a good order, the feminism of our day has distorted that order, but God's command and order stands true in every generation, men are to lead in the family and men are to lead and teach in the assembled church (woman are not prohibited from teaching children or other woman). This book provides a good vision and defense of, what on the face of it, to most Bible readers is clear and a scholarly refutation of those who deny this order.
