67 of 80 people found the following review helpful. A Respectful, Convincing Treatment of the SubjectBy Robert R. Hostetler"Historical, biblical, and theological considerations", writes Stanley J. Grenz "converge not only in allowing, but also in insisting, that women serve as full partners with men" in the work of the Christian church. His book (coauthored with Denise Muir Kjesbo), Women in the Church: A Biblical Theology of Women in Ministry is one of the best- perhaps THE best treatment I've ever read on the subject of women's roles in churches, marriage, and family.Grenz and Kjesbo are always respectful toward those who espouse a hierarchy for church and family based on gender roles, but their case for an egalitarian theology of women's roles is extremely thorough and compelling.While I recommend Grenz and Kjesbo's Women in the Church as perhaps the best example of the superior scholarship being performed today by egalitarian theologians and expositors, two other treatments deserve mention. Gretchen Gaebelein Hull's Equal to Serve (1987) and Rebecca Merrill Groothuis's Good News for Women (1997) treat the subject admirably.2 of 4 people found the following review helpful.

InformativeBy Pastorprompt delivery and great condition. this book provided a wealth of information to fuel discussions in the classroom. the students actually read and prepared for dialogue.

Studies of key biblical passages on women's roles in the church fill entire bookshelves, if not libraries. But in Women in the Church, Stanley Grenz and Denise Muir Kjesbo offer the first in-depth theological study of this issue--one of the most bitterly contested issues of our day.Carefully considering the biblical, historical and practical concerns surrounding women and the ordained ministry, this book will enlighten people on all sides of the issue. But Grenz and Kjesbo make no secret of their bold conclusion: 'Historical, biblical and theological considerations converge not only in allowing, but also in insisting, that women serve as full partners with men.' Thorough and irenic, Women in the Church bids to take an intense discussion to a new plane.

"Fair both on different sides of the debate and on the various approaches to the issue, Women in the Church offers important new insights to the discussion. The book deserves a wide hearing." (Craig S. Keener)"With its innovative approach, this book deserves to be read by all who seek new insights on the equality and ministry of women." (Catherine Clark Kroeger)From the Back CoverWomen in the Church is the first in-depth theological study of one of the day's most bitterly contested issues.

This painstaking work will enlighten people on all sides of the issue, though Stanley Grenz makes no secret of his bold conclusion.
