Men & Women: Serving and Teaching the Church Together

What was God’s design for men and women? From Genesis 1 on, we see that we are undeniably created as “partners.” From that starting point, Gerry outlines multiple points that most orthodox Christians agree on, as it relates to the topic of men and women serving and partnering together for the good of God’s kingdom. Then he sets up the rest of the course by explaining three common perspectives on how the partnership between men and women looks in the Church, and three common starting points for Christians’ conversation on how this partnership should look in practice.
