Session Description
I wanted to begin just being clear that worship is celebrating the work of God. AT the same time, you cannot ignore gender, as every one of us in this room is a gendered being. In Genesis 1:27, it tells us that God created us as male and female in the divine image. ... Scripture implies but does not spell out that the full image of God requires the action and worship of both male and female. Worship is never carried out by generic human beings.

Gender Issues in Worship
