"Exploring God's radical notion that women are people, too."
Let us be women who love -- Introduction: A bonfire on the shore -- Jesus made a feminist out of me -- A redemptive movement -- Tangled-up roots -- The silent (?) women of Paul -- Dancing warriors -- Patron saints, spiritual midwives, and "biblical" womanhood -- A narrative reborn -- Reclaiming the church ladies -- Moving mountains one stone at a time -- Kingdom come -- Intimate insurgency -- The commissioning.
Gender roles have been debated for centuries, and now Sarah Bessey offers a clarion freedom call for all who want to realize their giftedness and potential in the kingdom of God. Through a thoughtful review of biblical teaching and church practices, Bessey shares how following Jesus made a feminist out of her.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Not your average church lady book submitted by Elizabethreads on August 3, 2020, 3:07pm Bessey says everything you're thinking but too afraid to say. While the writing can be longwinded, her passion for helping women feel empowered is evident. This little yellow book is a breath of fresh air that asks all the right questions.
