This revised and strengthened edition presents two essays representing the egalitarian and the complementarian/hierarchical views of women and ministry.
What does the Bible say about women's roles in the Church? With pros and cons on either side of a heated, ongoing debate, no definitive conclusions have emerged. This book furnishes you with a clear and thorough presentation of the two primary views on women in ministry so you can better understand each one's strengths, weaknesses, and complexities. Each view - egalitarian (equal ministry opportunity for both genders) and complementarian (ministry roles differentiated by gender) - is represented by two contributors. This revised edition of the book brings the exchange of ideas and perspectives into the traditional Counterpoints format. Each author states his or her case and is then critiqued by the other contributors. The fair-minded, interactive Counterpoints forum allows you to compare and contrast the two different positions, and to form your own opinion concerning the practical and often deeply personal issue of women in ministry. The Counterpoints series provides a forum for comparison and critique of different views on issues important to Christians. Counterpoints books address two categories: Church Life and Exploring Theology. Complete your library with other books in the Counterpoints series. 368 pages, from Zondervan.

Two Views on Women in Ministry (Counterpoints Series)$32.99
This volume serves as an introduction and debate on the contentious topic of women in ministry. Four authors present an essay arguing their perspective, followed by a rebuttal from each of the other authors. Two of the authors are egaliterians, with similar positions, while the other two are complementarians with significantly different positions. Each author takes a different approach at presenting their case and at times this becomes disjointed, and some authors are clearer in their presentation than others, but overall this is a helpful book for familiarising yourself with the arguments for and against.
