Book Description

May 1994
Created Male and Female

Almost without notice, our homes and churches have become the newest laboratory for sex-role experimentation. Lured by the world's acceptance and a national obsession with fairness, we've replaced the once-clear biblical boundaries between men and women with a confusing, frighteningly secular hybrid. The harmony and effectiveness we were promised never came--only a treacherous rift that is ruining marriages, dividing families, and splitting churches top to bottom.

Different by Design offers hope for bridging that gap and finding fulfillment and success in your family and church. In his thorough, no-nonsense style, John MacArthur sets aside prevailing cultural standards and helps you understand and apply the biblical principles for men's and women's roles. Discover the beauty, balance, and benefits of God's unique role for you in this practical, well-researched tool--one you'll turn to again and again!

Dr. John MacArthur, Jr. is Pastor of Grace Community Church in Sun Valley, California, and President of The Master's College and Seminary. Known for his dynamic expository preaching, John is heard daily on the "Grace to You" syndicated radio broadcast and has a cassette ministry that has distributed more than eight million tapes. His many books include The MacArthur New Testament Commentary series, Our Sufficiency in Christ, Ashamed of the Gospel, How to Meet the Enemy, and Anxiety Attacked.

The MacArthur Study Series is designed to help Christians better understand and apply the Bible by better understanding some of its key truths and doctrines.

5.0 out of 5 stars Biblical Argument, August 25, 2004
By 
Quantum J (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Different by Design: Discovering God's Will for Today's Man and Woman (MacArthur Study Series) (Paperback)
Biblical Argument - period. This book does not present the opinion of any man, but instead takes an in-depth look at GOD's Word through the Scriptures. As a truth-seeking, Christ-honoring believer, there is nothing more authoritative and influential than that. This book, by the power of the Scripture included within it, changed my life in incalculable and eternal ways. Praise God!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Real Marriage Builder, July 30, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Different by Design: Discovering God's Will for Today's Man and Woman (MacArthur Study Series) (Paperback)
Thanks John for a great book about the roles of men and women from God's perspective. This book is (of course) absolutely biblical in its treatment of this subject.

Today's selfish and feminist culture will no doubt have problems with it, but as we know from God's Word, that is to be expected. For a true believer, God's Word and its exposition is liberating, but to the world, it is a "rock of offense".

This book will greatly help any couple who is thinking of getting married, or who has been married for some time, and wants to be more biblical in their roles together. But don't take my word for it, read it for yourself.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for Preparing for Marriage, August 22, 2010
This review is from: Different by Design: Discovering God's Will for Today's Man and Woman (MacArthur Study Series) (Paperback)
This book taught me so so so much about men vs. women. I was shocked to learn what I learned... such great, deep theology and I have loved all I have read from MacArthur, Jr. Hope this book blesses you as much as it has blessed me!
