On paper the gendered discourse of Southern Seminary stands in opposition at the other end of the field from Asbury Seminary. Asbury knows this and stands in opposition to the common forms of complementarianism in the evangelical world today. Discourse does not always match realities, as her study will eventually reveal.
Since their development in the 1950s, a plethora of feminisms have vied for ascendancy as the best books (older now!) tell the story of the range from radical feminisms to "Christian" feminisms. In evangelical circles, it may be best not to use the term [Feminism] because it usually evokes fear or anger, depending on who is using it (GRIN). Greg Wack is on target in his comment; the bigger story MUST be about men and women being sent out to work together. Period. Amen. Amen.

The seminal story of the struggle for equality - gender. Today, it includes so much more than female- male equality! We haven’t learned too much from it, ever, so we keep repeating it over and over and over! We keep looking for evil “fruit” and who’s to blame, rather than the bigger story of being sent out to work it out together.! The proof could be in the pudding. But, it’s more likely to be found in a nutritionally beneficial stew that benefits the whole body, rather than an unsatifiable craving.
