Jesus, Justice, and Gender Roles

A Case for Gender Roles in Ministry

By: Kathy Keller

Narrated by: Laura Sauriat

At one point in her life, author and co-founder of Redeemer Presbyterian Church Kathy Keller sought pastoral ordination. Yet she came to adopt the view that men and women have different roles in marriage and ministry, and that fulfilling such roles pleases God and leads to greater personal fulfillment.

In this unapologetic but nuanced piece, Keller presents a caring and careful case for biblical gender differences and the complementarian view of women in ministry. At the same time, she encourages women to teach and lead in the church in ways that may startle some complementarians. People on both sides of this hot-button topic will be challenged by her ministry-tested and thoroughly Scriptural perspective.

amazingly thoughtful

taught with full grace and careful in sight into the complex idea of gender roles

Profoundly helpful, simple, concise explanation on the why of Complementarianism

I am so grateful for this book. It explores the texts that bring up the most questions with clarity (no dancing around the issue with fluff, which I appreciate!). I only gave 4 stars for performance because I wish it was Kathy herself doing the reading. The reader did a fine job though.

Outstanding!

Well cited. Well argued.

I will be picking up more of her books.

Thanks Kathy!
