O knihe
Over the years, female theologians in Africa have observed that, like some obnoxious cultural traditions, some biblical texts are employed to legitimate women oppression in African societies. They note that when Church leaders celebrate the subordination of wives and the supremacy of husbands, Christian women bear a disproportionate amount of the burden of maintaining a peaceful and stable marriage relationship without grumbling. Women's experiences show that relationships between husbands and wives are intricate; hence, marriage relationships require that both husbands and wives love each other profoundly as well as submit themselves to each other. Such mutual submission and love enhances a just and flourishing marriage relationships and also promotes equity in gender relationships within the society. This book is a contribution to theological reflections on appropriate models for gender relationships in African societies. It is an invaluable book for theologians, Church and State leaders, literary writers, marriage counselors, husbands and wives, young adults, legal luminaries, human rights activists, and advocates of equity in gender relationships in the family and society.
