In the most recent spring edition of JBMW, we introduced our readers to a new section in our journal, an annotated bibliography of gender related articles from the previous calendar year. Now, in the fall edition, we are similarly providing an annotated bibliography of gender related books published in the previous calendar year. As the Lord grants grace, this is a feature of JBMW that our readership can regularly anticipate.

We at JBMW are persuaded that this is yet another means of equipping pastors, laity, and scholars to help the church deal biblically with gender issues. Once again, the sheer quantity of literature published—and here the reader should note that even this is not a comprehensive compilation—on gender issues in the previous year should alert us to the fact that these matters are anything but dormant.

With that in mind, JBMW has again attempted to provide an appropriate classification and annotation of each of the following books. The annotations focus on reporting the content of the respective volume, but where appropriate, they also interact with the content in an effort to highlight valuable points or problematic thinking.

For the sake of continuity, we have followed the same classification procedure employed in JBMW 6/1. The books are classified according to their stance on gender issues. Complementarian, Egalitarian, Non-Evangelical, and Undeclared once again comprise the headings. Our readership will find the Complementarian heading self-evident. By Egalitarian, we intend to classify evangelicals who do not see male headship in the church or home taught in Scripture. Under the Non-Evangelical heading, we have classified important secular books as well as volumes that broach the subject of biblical gender issues from a non-evangelical point of view. Finally, under the Undeclared heading, we have listed those books that do not give sufficient indication of their fundamental stance for us to classify them more specifically.

It is also worth pointing out that our readers will soon have access to all of our bibliographical information on the CBMW website (www.cbmw.org). Check periodically to see when it gets posted, and then check back frequently as it will be an ever-expanding list. May God be pleased to use this compilation as a helpful aid as we attempt to think carefully and biblically through these vital matters.
