Perfection Collides With Free Will by Gary A Williams

Eve was made to be in submission to Adam.
Men are stronger than women and natural leaders.
Eve's weakness brought sin into the world.
Women shouldn't speak in church.

While some in the Christian community are stuck on questions like those above, traditional ideas about gender are being debated and changed. Would you like to know what the timeless wisdom of the Bible offers in rebuttal to all the noise around us? Whether we are Christ followers or not, the Bible has much to teach us about how to be male and female at home, in the community and in religious gatherings.

This book begins in the first three chapters of Genesis. Usually seen as a history of (or metaphor about) human origin, Genesis is really about purpose and relationships. In three short chapters Genesis builds a foundation for understanding why we exist, how we are meant to live and how a historically bad attempt at rebellion threw all human relationships into turmoil.

But the story doesn't end with conflict. Instead of walking away from the rebels, God put a plan into motion to guide them - and us - onto a path toward interpersonal and spiritual healing. That path becomes clear as the book transitions from Genesis into a study of the words and deeds of Jesus and his apostles.

Some readers will find their closely held beliefs challenged. Others will see their beliefs confirmed. But no one will read this book without discovering principles that have the power to improve their relationships with their Creator and with the people around them, be it at home, work, church, in the community or even on social media.

After decades of study, prayer and meditation, Gary Williams crafts a conversation about gender roles and relationships that helps readers make up their own minds about relevant -- but often difficult to understand -- passages found in the Bible. In the beginning is where Williams begins his look at ideal male-female partnerships. Trust in a good God accompanies his study from start to finish.

Williams, Gary A.: - Gary Williams began his career as a journalist and magazine and book editor before becoming a corporate communications executive in California's Silicon Valley. He and his wife then worked together for 25 years, building a successful design and manufacturing business that served major northern California corporations such as Apple and Google. Along with his writing, editing and corporate management experience, he spent nearly four years working full time in a ministry that he helped to found and countless hours with other ministries and community organizations, as both volunteer and board of directors member. Over the past five decades, Williams has served as a Bible teacher, small-group leader, deacon and elder in interdenominational Christian churches, and he and his wife assisted in starting three ministries.
