Mutuality Magazine and E-Quality Journal—Call for Papers
Mutuality publishes feature articles for evangelical lay readers on topics related to biblical equality and justice. The theme for our Spring 2007 issue is “Advocacy versus Apathy.”
In this issue we would like to remind Christians about why it’s important to take a stand on issues even when doing so may not serve our own best interest.
We would like to explore biblical responses to questions like the following:
* Why should men take a stand for gender equality?
* Why should white people take a stand for ethnic equality?
* Why should healthy and wealthy people take a stand for ending hunger and poverty?
Related issues include:
* Using discernment about when and how to take a stand on an issue
* Personal, biblical, or historical examples of taking a stand
* Why gender-based hierarchy is a justice issue
* How to speak and act with conviction; responding to critics
* What about leaders, churches, and schools that refuse to address “divisive” issues?
* Why and how some voices are silenced and what we can do about it
The deadline for this issue is coming up soon on Feb. 26. Please contact Chelsea DeArmond (cdearmond@cbeinternational.org) if you’re interested in writing for this issue so we can discuss the details further.
