Throughout the ages, cultures have pivoted between two understandings of the sexes.
Men and women are equal, and therefore they are the same--interchangeable... or... Men and women are different, and the differences are exploited to falsely claim that some people are superior to others.
But what if there is a third option?
What if a true biblical understanding, rooted in the Trinity, provides a foundation and vision for the sexes, where unity and equality is possible without uniformity, and difference and diversity between men and women is celebrated without superiority? In an age where views about men and women have divided the church and the culture, The Grand Design offers an opportunity for everyone to discover with fresh insight all that it means to be made in the image of God, male and female.
“Darrow offers a healing biblical vision where men and women reflect the relationship within the Trinity: unity without uniformity and diversity without superiority.”
Nancy Pearcey, Professor and scholar in residence at Houston Christian University, author of Love Thy Body and The Toxic War on Masculinity
“Rich, timely, wide ranging, provocative, and wise, Miller’s The Grand Design is a book to be read slowly, pondered, and discussed.”
Os Guinness, Author of The Magna Carta of Humanity
“At the heart of modern feminism is the goal of removing the homemaker from the home and reducing the transcendent to the material and mundane. It is replacing THE MATERNAL GLORY with a job and a paycheck.”
“Just as God created the first man and breathed life into him, so the mother who brought her child into the world is to light the lamp of her child’s soul.”
“In creating civilization, women transformed male lust into love, channeled wanderlust into jobs, homes, and families, linked men to specific children, reared children into citizens, and changed hunters into fathers. The prime fact of life is the sexual superiority of women.”
“The lioness does not try to be the lion. She embraces her role as the lioness. She’s powerful, strong, and nurturing. She does not mistake her meekness for weakness . . . The lioness does not look at the lion and say, ‘I want to be a lion.’ She celebrates her being a lioness.”
“After God made the male, he made the female. The woman is the crescendo of creation . . . the climax of God’s creative activity.”
“Femininity is sourced in God Himself. The maternal heart of God is the origin of the feminine just as God’s paternal heart is the origin of the masculine.”
