Masculine Aesthetics and Food Ascetics
Toward Gender Justice
This article reflects on our experiences of facilitating the Bible studies for the Just Community of Women and Men pre‐assembly gathering to the 11th Assembly of the World Council of Churches in August–September 2022. Working with the text of Acts 8:26‐40, commonly known as the baptism of an Ethiopian eunuch, the article reflects critically on our own facilitation as well as participant feedback from the workshop.

(Con)texturing Ideologies of Modesty, Authority, and Childbearing in 1 Timothy 2
Feminist and gender critical biblical scholarship has shown how texts ideologically function as products of their ancient social and cultural norms.

In this article, I bring a combination of approaches from ideological criticism an…

Drawing on four years of experience teaching gender and sexual ethics at the University of the Western Cape (UWC) we offer some tentativ…

Sex and gender ethical norms, especially those found in Pauline texts, continue to inform sexual and reproductive choices of contemporary Christians because Christians understand Scripture to be regulative for their day-to-day living in the present-day society, despite the temporal and cultural separation of our world from the world of the New Testament. To avoid the impasse created by the temporal and cultural separation, people often resort to …
