A Concise Look at Top Bible Scholars on the Male/Female Question

By: Jane L. Crane, James D. Smith III - foreword

Narrated by: Jane L. Crane, James D. Smith III

A concise, updated summary of top Bible scholars on male/female leadership, focusing on facts rather than theories and leaving conclusions to the audience. Includes a fascinating look at ancient texts, Bible translations through the centuries, and early church actions on women leaders. Academically sound but written for the average person. A quick listen of about three hours, backed up with references to more than 100 leading scholars.

Critic reviews

"SUPERBLY CONCISE. An impressive short book by a Lausanne Movement colleague who has researched, taught, and written on this topic for years."—Christopher Wright, global ambassador, Langham Partnership

"A MASTERPIECE. Succinct yet filled with information, reasoned yet inspiring, easy to read yet scholarly. I learned something new in every chapter." (Ellen Duffield)

"FASCINATING. Reads at times like an Indiana Jones movie. And so clear, concise, and easy to follow." (Andrew Alden)
