Then the discussion turns toward biblical gender roles. Does the Bible teach that women are less than men? What does it really mean that Eve was created as Adam’s “helper”? Are men and women equal, different, or both? Mike explains how the Hebrew word often translated as “helper” is also used in the Old Testament to describe God’s help, while Megan brings her honest questions, pushback, and skeptical perspective.
