Feminist Mistake, The
Can feminism be squared with the Bible? Mary Kassian meets this question head-on with a thorough inquiry into the history of feminism. She leads readers through a careful examination of feminist thought and explores the lineage and interrelationship between feminism's secular and religious veins in North America. She then makes a biblical, point-by-point critique of feminism.
Feminism remains one of the most urgent issues the church is facing today, as shown by the increasing confusion over gender roles in marriages, families, and churches. With a growing number of theologians and denominations advocating radical gender egalitarianism, we must answer many questions about women in the church'and in the wider culture. In order to do this, first we need to understand the history and development of feminist thought.
In THE FEMINIST GOSPEL, Mary Kassian provided a thought-provoking inquiry into the history of feminism. Now, in this thoroughly revised and updated book, she revisits the subject, adding to its history an examination of the effects of feminism. THE FEMINIST MISTAKE is a reliable, biblical critique that will provide answers and inspire serious reflection on this issue.
