LESSON 1.7
COMPLEMENTARY DESIGN OF MEN AND WOMEN
Equal in Value, Distinct in Roles
God has created men and women of equal value and honor in his image but wonderfully different from one another. He intends for there to be a beautiful compliment of different functions and roles between men and women in the family and in the church for the good of all. When these created distinctions are joyfully embraced, men and women will flourish together, God’s image will be wonderfully on display, and homes and churches will be strengthened for the mission of God in our world.
