The teaching of "male headship," or the belief that God has divinely ordained places for men to rule over women, is mainstream in Christianity today. I contend that this teaching is not only harmful to women by limiting their capacity to serve Christ, but that this teaching is also harmful to men by imposing unnecessary burdens upon them. That's right! The teachings of patriarchy hurt men, too! If you have been looking into the concept of egalitarianism, but find yourself overwhelmed with information and discouraged by controversy, this book may be just right for you! It is designed to be a starting place for those beginning to study this topic. It is also meant to be an encouragement to those that have been negatively affected by the harmful teachings of patriarchy and male headship.
