enGendered celebrates the God-given distinctions between a man and a woman. It concludes that the more distinction is embraced, the closer a man and woman become. Thus gender, rightly understood, is a tool for intimacy. Written in a compassionate tone and winsome style, the volume speaks to Christians who want to know what the Bible says about gender differences and why. This theology of gender is also of value for people who struggle with same-sex attraction but want to follow Christ.

Sam A. Andreades was senior pastor of Faith Reformed Presbyterian Church in Quarryville, Pennsylvania, from 2014 to 2018. Prior to that, he served as a pastor for ten and a half years in Greenwich Village, New York City, and is the founder of Higher Ground (originally called G.A.M.E.: Gender Affirming Ministry Endeavor), a New York City ministry of Christian discipleship serving those with unwanted same-sex attractions.

He is a graduate of Yale University (BS, geology and geophysics), Reformed Theological Seminary (MDiv, pastoral ministry), New York University (MS, artificial intelligence), and Covenant Theological Seminary (DMin, urban mission and ministry), where he wrote his dissertation on gender distinction in marriage.

Sam married his wife, Mary K., in 1990, and they have four children together: Thaddaeus, Jeremy, Veronica, and Enoch.
