An Annotated Biblio-BLOG-raphy

One great pleasure of Gender Blog is that we get to go shoulder-to-shoulder with many other godly and articulate bloggers out in the blogoshere. We get to learn from and find other helpful resources from these friends. Though their regular output of posts may not always be on gender issues, they are faithful to Scripture when they do. So then, here is an annotated bibliography of blogs that think and write clearly on gender issues for the Church and the Christian home (in no particular order):
Dr. Burk is not only the JBMW Editor , he is also blogger-extraordinaire! He writes on topics ranging from theology, politics, to LSU football. Not only that, he is very clear in relating biblical truth to the understanding of manhood and womanhood in the home and the local church.
GirlTalk (as referenced to in a previous post ) is almost encyclopedic in their resources on womanhood because of their consistent and extensive contribution over the years. They provide practical wisdom for mothering, hospitality, discipleship, and friendship. We would especially encourage all ladies to pay close attention to GirlTalk. They are Gospel-centered and richly biblical. They are winsome and pointed in their posts.
The Lord has blessed his Church with the contribution of Carolyn McCulley through her books, articles, and her blog. She has a clear and prophetic voice for single women that directs their affections and desires to God and his Gospel.
Owen has a unique ability to comment on social, political, and theological concerns with a Bible-saturated perspective. So, when he writes on gender and biblical manhood and womanhood, it is God-oriented and informed by Scripture, not centered on felt needs nor is he capitulating to culture.
Andy is a scholar-blogger. That is the easiest way to put it. He regularly engages in academic and theological affairs, while still keeping a firm foot in practical applications for the local church. Thankfully, he uses his abilities to think through gender issues in the family and in the Church not only on his blog, but also for JBMW!
What do you say about Between Two Worlds? When your blog gets mentioned in TIME magazine, that usually speaks for itself. Someone once said, when asked what their favorite things to read were, he responded, “Whatever Justin Taylor at Between Two Worlds tells me to read.” Justin Taylor consistently points his readers to helpful resources. He keeps the evangelical world synthesized. He also cares deeply for the gender debate and has contributed to JBMW on the issue of the TNIV .
John Starke, the author at John Ploughman, is a staff contributor at Gender-Blog. At John Ploughman he regularly comments on topics concerning theology, ministry, and biblical manhood and womanhood.
Tony Reinke is a fun blog to visit. He gives clever ideas - such as the BlankBible , fun updates from popular conferences, and silly video updates. But Tony is also a Gospel-centered blogger who always posts encouraging applications from Scripture and highlights helpfulbooks for Christians in every spectrum – for the pastor and for the layman. Tony regularly posts on thetopic of biblical manhood and womanhood or points to many helpful resources.
