Dave Pellowe argues that patriarchy, rightly understood, is a God-ordained system of sacrificial male leadership, not oppression. He critiques feminism for rejecting the biblical distinctions between the roles and functions of men and women, while acknowledging abuses by some men that distort true manhood. Grounded in Ephesians 5, he calls for repentance, restoration and a return to biblical roles as the foundation for flourishing families and society.

Dave Pellowe, founder of Church And State, explains that biblical politics is simply advancing God’s kingdom and will on earth now. He urges Christians to reject partisan loyalty, speak what God says on every contested issue, equip the next generation, and actively love their neighbour through civic engagement rather than remaining silent or neutral.
