Abstract

Volume 3 contains resources to assist readers to engage with gender issues in their lives, churches and communities. Most of these chapters offer Christian faith resources for groups and individuals who want to grapple more deeply with masculinity and gender issues from a social justice perspective.
There are also accounts of community-based initiatives to bring about gender transformation. This series is most obviously useful to men and people working with men. But it offers useful resources for women too, since women play major roles, either in maintaining oppressive forms of masculinity, or in challenging them and developing alternative, healthy masculinities.
