I wrote the authorized biography of Roger Nicole, an egalitarian with whom I disagree on that point but agree on most other points. He is indeed a gracious teacher and friend. Blessings, my dear brothers and sisters! Greetings, friends! I wrote the authorized biography of Roger Nicole, an egalitarian with whom I disagree on that point but agree on most other points.

David,

I would encourage you to find an egal position paper that you consider well-written but disagree with, and critique it sympathetically but firmly and submit your review for inclusion on this blog.

I think you should find a way of showing that you do have complementarians who are contributing in this team members thingy. Most of what I've read here [and I haven't read everything] seems to be "Discussion of Complementarianism by Egalitarians." Hi Wayne

I think you should find a way of showing that you do have complementarians who are contributing in this team members thingy.

Most of what I’ve read here [and I haven't read everything] seems to be “Discussion of Complementarianism by Egalitarians.”

It seems to me that the comments are in a larger font. How about for you? David, I am now trying a different blog template. It seems to me that the comments are in a larger font. How about for you?

The problem is with the WordPress templates available to us. We are not able to enlarge the font of the comments section. I have tried several of the available templates. The first one I used the font was even worse in the comments section. I could barely read some of the words. We'll keep trying to find a solution, David. Maybe WordPress was designed to be used more by younger people with strong eyes than those like you and me with presbyoptic eyes! :-) David observed:

Not all of their names are displayed yet on this new blog due to a limitation in the WordPress software. But their names are displayed on the <a href="http://complegalitarian.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Blogger blog site we just moved from</a>. Also, blog participant John Hobbins, has repeatedly exhorted us all that as a pastor, he has observed loving, healthy complementarian as well as egalitarian marriages.

There are both complementarians and egalitarians on our blogging team. Some posts promote the complementarian viewpoint, others an egalitarian viewpoint, others call for greater grace between those who advocate for either side. Some posts link to complementarian resources, such as the recent one about Tom Schreiner's sermon. Other posts link to egalitarian resources. Other posts link to people such as Sarah Sumner who call both sides to take biblical passages on gender issues more seriously. David asked:

It's a bummer, I think, because it would be really nice to have the group better rounded out...and I think that the rest of the team feels the same way!
