Reading of gender injustice in the Bible


We had three Contextual Bible Studies and the last one looked at the story of Tamar, 2 Samuel ch 13 v1 -22. It was very interesting to be a part of and experience the reactions of both the male and female participants. Our young men and women are clearly alive to the effects of gender injustice, and the importance of one having and using their voice, and having the ability to influence. I am glad the planned Transformative Masculinity initiative is one of the interventions/ programmes by the Africa Alliance of YMCA, through the Subject to Citizen concept.
