A Doxology of Gender: Human Nature as Male and Female

$145.00

Within the domain of theological anthropology, one of our chief aims is a right understanding of human nature. The Scriptures present humanity as fundamentally of two types: male or female. In this series we explore biblical and theological aspects of male and female as vocations within the world of Holy Scripture and in conversation with the Christian tradition.

This module is suitable for individual or group study. After an orientation featuring new lecture content, this course then proceeds to lectures selected from the first half of the Greystone graduate level course, “Theological Anthropology,” and from other Greystone modules, organized here under one overarching theme. Readings and discussion questions have been added to facilitate your understanding of the material.
