Have you ever wondered if the Bible really says that: Husbands are the "high priest of the home ?" Women are not qualified to pastor? And females are over-emotional and simply not "built" for leadership? Skillfully separating cultural and religious traditions from solid biblical truths, Does God Really Prefer Men? takes a fresh and discerning look at today's gender debate. Regrettably, the history of our noble church is one filled with mistakes: slavery, the sale of indulgences, anti-Semitism, segregation, just to name a few. And with over 250 carefully documented references, the authors contend that today's belief in female subordination is just another mistake; not some cruel and desperate plan to undermine women, but a simple misunderstanding of scripture. Moving past religious and cultural traditions, they have discovered that the ground at the foot of the cross really is level...and that Jesus is the original "Equal-Opportunity Employer"!
