Men and women working together can be a powerful ministry partnership, but it can also raise a lot of prickly questions:

 

• The New Testament treats Christian men and women as sacred siblings. Is that relationship a reality in your ministry?
• What are the appropriate bridges and boundaries?
• How can we be “safe”?
• How do sacred siblings interact in personal conversations, staff meetings, and professional outings?

 

In Mixed Ministry, the male and female authors explore these common and thorny issues in depth, outlining how staff and lay leaders can develop healthy working partnerships in their ministries.
