Just like with any other sin, Christians have sometimes acted that way. Some of my friends think that Christianity is “misogynistic”- which means hateful toward women. Rebecca McLaughlin uses teen-friendly illustrations and biblical truth to address 10 questions teens face about the Christian worldview, challenging young people to think deeply about hard topics and stand for truth in a secular age. The first people to see Jesus after his resurrection were women-even though women at the time weren’t trusted as witnesses in court!ġ0 Questions Every Teen Should Ask (and Answer) about Christianity Rebecca McLaughlin Jesus shocked his disciples by befriending a Samaritan woman, who had had five husbands and was now living with a man she wasn’t married to (John 4:1–42), and he held up a “sinful woman” who loved him as a moral example to a self-righteous man who didn’t (Luke 7:36–50). He particularly cared for women other people looked down on. For instance, when his friend Mary was sitting at his feet to learn alongside his male disciples, Jesus defended her (Luke 10:38–42). Jesus made lots of female friends and treated them as if they were equal to men. They thought girls were less important than boys. When Jesus was born, it was normal for people to leave baby girls outside to die. But that was not what people in Jesus’s day believed. We may take it for granted that women are equally valuable as men. But Christianity actually lifted women up. Some of my friends think Christianity has pushed women down.
