Embracing Complementarianism

Turning Biblical Convictions into Positive Church Culture

It can be tempting to shy away from addressing the issue of gender roles in church because it’s often controversial.  But this can result in churches either being increasingly influenced by secular culture or simply sticking with the status quo when it comes to what men and women do in church.

Building on the belief that complementarianism is both biblical and positive, this book focuses on what these convictions look like in practice.  Moving beyond the familiar discussions around “gender roles”, and leaving room for variety in how readers implement these ideas, it will encourage a church culture where men and women truly partner together – embracing their privileges and responsibilities, and maximising their gifts, in joyful service of God’s kingdom.

With discussion questions at the end of each chapter, this book provides a great opportunity for church leadership teams to think intentionally about complementarianism and discuss how it manifests itself in their church context.
