THIS PROGRAM EXISTS ...
TO EQUIP women with information, tools, relationships, credentials, and opportunities to be more effective leaders and change agents in both society at large and the Christian community.
TO EDUCATE women regarding Biblical equality and Biblical leadership, as revealed in both Scripture accurately interpreted, beginning with Jesus Christ, and by the activity of the Holy Spirit, particularly in Church revival history.
TO PROVIDE opportunities for women to learn, live, and teach the Biblical model of gender equality and so improve their own lives and that of other women around the world, especially where domestic abuse, religious oppression, and sexist thinking would otherwise keep women in less than desirable situations.

THE PROGRAM TEACHES ...
1. The Bible, accurately interpreted, teaches the equality of women and men in terms of substance and value, privilege and authority, function and authority.
2. The Holy Spirit has elevated women toward equality with men to the extent that the culture yields to Biblical values. This is best observed in times of revival.
3. The Bible teaches that men and women are to function according to giftings and abilities rather than according to roles based on gender, dictated by fallen humanity and religious cultures.
