It is a fact that women have long been oppressed and discriminated against. In our age and day many think that it is a thing of the past. There has been progress in gender equality. Many people think women should be content with what has been reached.
As Christian women we know that God created man – both man and women – in His image. Our loving God never wanted women to be treated as they have been treated throughout history. Women owe so much to Jesus and how he treated women. When we read the Gospels, we see that Jesus treated women very differently from what was usual in his culture. He ignored the restrictions that were imposed on women and allowed them to follow him publicly. Women worked with the disciples as his disciples and proclaimed the good news. The women whom the gospels portray were strong women, and Jesus supported them.
Women see the world through feminine eyes and it might be good to share this perspective with others. That is why Hannele Ottschofski has started to write a blog in German and English about topics that are of interest and current events. We invite you to look into her blog site under: frauenblick.blogspot.com. Scroll down to find the English version.
