Christians for Biblical Equality is a US organisation that believes in and promotes the biblical equality of men and women. Their website is well worth a browse, with free access to articles on theology, church history, culture and relationships. You need to register to access them but it's worth it, and you can also sign up for Arise, their free weekly newsletter. Particularly recommended is their series of short answers to challenging texts by Allison Young, which outline an egalitarian view on passages such as Genesis 1-3, 1 Corinthians 11 and 14, Ephesians 5 and 1 Timothy 2.
