According to a Christianity Today reader survey about gender roles: Seventy-eight percent of respondents think: "Christian leaders need to speak out on proper roles for men and women." Eighty-eight percent agreed: "There is a lot of confusion about male and female roles in the Christian world today.… The key actors in the evangelical debate have clearly reached an impasse." (March 2002)
This book proposes careful but clear biblical answers to all questions:
It is based on the inerrancy of Scripture and rejects the deculturizing hermeneutic.
It is not egalitarian. It provides irrefutable exegetical evidence for the husband's authority in marriage. It affirms family values.
It is not radically complementarian. It provides in depth refutation of eighty-five different objections and restrictions to ministry by women in the church. It frees women to serve Christ fully.
Dr. John H. Armstrong, President: "Reformation and Revival Ministries, Inc."
"I have found it the most satisfying exposition of the Holy Scriptures on this subject that I have read in thirty years of thought and exegetical work."

George was born in Belgium, of American parents. He studied at Wheaton College (B.A.) and Dallas Theological Seminary (Th.M., Chafer Award in Systematic Theology) and taught for thirty-three years at the Belgian Bible Institute, serving the last twenty years as its Director. George has been guest lecturer at five European theological seminaries and is a conference speaker throughout Europe. He provided leadership to four different church-planting efforts in Belgium and is still active in that ministry.
Dora is a Belgian. After training in England, she served for four years as a missionary in the Congo and for thirty-three years as a professor at the Belgian Bible Institute. She is also in demand as a conference speaker and served for fifteen years on the Board of the European Bible Institute, Lamorlaye, France, currently as its Vice President. The Winstons have six children (five of them are missionaries and one a social worker) and fifteen grandchildren.
