The roles played by men and women in our culture have been radically altered over the past fifty years. Those same roles are also being significantly challenged in the church, and in Christian families, by those who call themselves egalitarians. Many egalitarians seek to be faithful to the Bible, but their approach to it seems to require a fundamentally different way of looking at scripture than that of historic Christianity. Although this issue may not be at the heart of Christianity, the way we interpret the Bible is, and the manner in which we look at male and female roles profoundly affects how we look at other Biblical issues. Pastor Tom Hilpert, a former egalitarian, takes a close look at the issue of male and female roles in the Bible, sharing more than fifteen years' worth of research, study and practical experience on the subject. With careful, clear biblical interpretation, In His Image guides readers through the relevant scriptures, and the many important additional issues related to the subject. Egalitarian arguments are carefully considered and answered, and a number of practical applications are offered. If you are interested in male-female roles, or even simply Bible interpretation, you will find that In His Image provides insight that is both thought provoking and clear.
