Book Reviews of Beyond Sex Roles: What the Bible Says about a Woman's Place in Church and Family
Book Review: A must read for today's Christian man or woman
Summary: 4 Stars
I just came on the site to check on a spelling of Bilezikian's name. I was pleasantly surprised to see it has gone into a new printing since the copy I read. This book was recommended to me after my professing Christian husband filed for divorce almost 9 years ago. I was struggling with the whole concept of my place as a woman. I have had my own doubts about the traditional teaching of women's place in the church, submission, and other related topics for much of my 30+ years as a bible student. I literally drank up his words. I can't wait to consume a few of the other titles I saw today. The only reason I don't give this book 5 stars is because your average reader will not tackle the length nor the depth of this book. Your casual seeker will be turned off. Only your seriously dedicated seekers of spiritual transformation will delve into the darkness of his own thinking to consider the light this book brings.

Summary of Beyond Sex Roles: What the Bible Says about a Woman's Place in Church and Family
This first-rate biblical and theological study offers an accessible examination of the key texts of Scripture pertinent to understanding female roles, affirming full equality of the sexes in family and church. The third edition has been revised throughout. Gilbert Bilezikian avoids using scholarly jargon and complex argumentation in the main text of the book to encourage readers to interact with the biblical research. The aim is for nonspecialized readers to be able to follow his discussion step-by-step, evaluate arguments, consider alternative views, and arrive at independent conclusions. The study guide format of the book is designed for either individual investigation or group work. Pastors, church leaders, students, and those interested in issues relating to gender and church life will value this classic work on the egalitarian viewpoint.General Books
