  2 Views On Women In Ministy (Revised)

  $22.99

  This revised and strengthened edition presents two essays representing the egalitarian and the complementarian/hierarchical views of women and ministry.

  From the Back Cover
  What does the Bible say about the role of women in the church? With pros and cons on either side of a heated, ongoing debate, no definitive conclusions have emerged. The purpose of this book is to furnish concerned readers with a clear and thorough presentation of the two primary views on women in the ministry so they can better understand each one’s strengths, weaknesses, and complexities. This revised and strengthened edition presents two essays representing the “egalitarian” and the “complementarian/hierarchical” views of women in ministry. Each contributor offers thoroughly qualified insights based on careful biblical scholarship and personal experience. At the end of each of the four essays, a brief question-and-answer section provides further clarification. The general editor adds a commentary at the conclusion of both the hierarchical and egalitarian sections. Contributors Include: * Linda L. Belleville (Egalitarian View) * Craig L. Blomberg (Complementarian View) * Craig S. Keener (Egalitarian View) * Thomas R. Schreiner (Complementarian View)

  Jesus And Personality Theory

  $32.99

  In recent years researchers in human personality have come to a rarely achieved near unanimous conclusion: human personality is structured around a very few major traits, probably five in number, namely: openess to experience, conscientiousness, extroversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism. How does this Five-Factor Model fit with a Christian understanding of human nature? How does it compare or contrast with the way Jesus lived, taught and counseled? James Beck looks at prominent themes in the teaching and ministry of Jesus and how they relate to the five personality factors. Here is a study of the Christian implications of the new model – a study that will offer fresh insights for students, pastors and therapists alike.
