What's the Difference?: Manhood and Womanhood Defined According to the Bible Author: John Piper Binding: Paperback List price: $8.99 USD Amazon price: $8.99 USD

Reviewer: Brian G Hedges (Niles, Michigan)
John Piper delivers a carefully studied Biblical portrait of what it means to be a man or a woman. The principles are based on sound Biblical exegesis, but without a lot of technicality and detail. The chapters dealing with "The Meaning of Masculinity" and "The Meaning of Femininity" are dealt with by the use of carefully constructed definitions that are unfolded word-by-word. Extensive space is given to describing the masculine role of leadership. Piper's approach is Scriptural, and therefore relevant; and he labors hard to bridge any apparant gaps between the Biblical model and its contemporary relevance.
