Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: USA Today Bestseller Christianity Today 2022 Book Award Finalist (History & Biography) "A powerful work of skillful research and personal insight."--Publishers Weekly Biblical womanhood--the belief that God designed women to be submissive wives, virtuous mothers, and joyful homemakers--pervades North American Christianity. From choices about careers to roles in local churches to relationship dynamics, this belief shapes the everyday lives of evangelical women. Yet biblical womanhood isn't biblical, says Baylor University historian Beth Allison Barr. It arose from a series of clearly definable historical moments. This book moves the conversation about biblical womanhood beyond Greek grammar and into the realm of church history--ancient, medieval, and modern--to show that this belief is not divinely ordained but a product of human civilization that continues to creep into the church. Barr's historical insights provide context for contemporary teachings about women's roles in the church and help move the conversation forward. Interweaving her story as a Baptist pastor's wife, Barr sheds light on the #ChurchToo movement and abuse scandals in Southern Baptist circles and the broader evangelical world, helping readers understand why biblical womanhood is more about human power structures than the message of Christ.
Download or read book Biblical Women Submissive written by Joe E. Lunceford and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2009-10-02 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many years I have had an interest in the equality of women and men, particularly in the church, where it has been woefully lacking for the most part. More recently Fundamentalist theologians have become increasingly blatant in asserting that the Bible teaches subordination of women to men both inside and outside the church. I have argued that this idea results from an irresponsible proof-texting from the Bible. I am convinced that, when taken as a whole, looking at all passages referring to women, the Bible supports the complete equality of women with men. I have undertaken to demonstrate this fact by looking carefully at the stories of women in the Bible, both named and unnamed, who were not submissive to men and who refused to settle for the role which their society attempted to assign them. I have taken these passages from the Bible and interpreted them within the context into which they are placed, to the degree that this can be determined. My goal was to find every story in the Bible in which a woman stepped out of her societal role and did something only men were supposed to do. I leave to the reader to decide whether or not I have succeeded.

It can be hard to imagine. But it works. Nina Roesner has led countless women through this practical and life-changing journey, and in The Respect Dare she offers you the hope that so many others have found. Day by day, true stories and thought-provoking questions will help you apply biblical wisdom to the most important relationship in your life.

This book was released on 2024-06-13 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abuse is hiding in our churches. Our women and children are being wounded and even dying in their homes by those who have committed to love and protect them. Domestic violence is present in families you would never suspect from the most-respected to the least noticed, even the family sitting near you in church. Women are told God hates divorce, learn to submit, pray more, turn the other cheek, look at the plank in their own eye first, forgive 70 times 7. By giving such advice to women living in abusive relationships, well-intentioned church leaders are sending women and children back into dangerous, possibly deadly situations. In The Church’s Response to Domestic Violence, a guide based on scriptural truth, church leaders will learn - the complexities of the dynamics of domestic violence - who abuses and who is abused - the effects of violence in the home - the dangers of couples counseling - how to respond to disclosures of abuse - why she keeps going back - why she doesn’t just leave We need our clergy and church leaders to reject the false ideologies that put God’s children at risk and equip the Church to be the clear voice of hope and healing for families.

Drawing upon rich Norwegian and Malagasy sources, entangled and multivocal stories are allowed to unfold, revealing the complex dynamics of mission encounters. Tracing Malagasy agency and pursuit of churchly independence in pre-colonial and colonial Madagascar, this study explores the power-struggles between the Malagasy, the missionaries and between the mission in Norway and Madagascar. Through careful attention to context and agency, Karina Hestad Skeie provides new perspectives on the interplay between the local and the global in Christian missions, and on the centrality and restrictions of local agency on mission policy.

Download or read book Women The Misunderstood Majority written by M. Gay Hubbard and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2003-05-12 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fact: Women are the major consumers of counseling services today. Fact: The average counselor (male or female, secular or pastoral) has little or no specific training in the psychology of women or in understanding women's issues. Result: A widespread therapy gap that reduces respect, hinders healing, and breeds frustration. M. Gay Hubbard writes to close that disturbing gap by exposing common misbeliefs and faulty assumptions about women that can block understanding and perpetuate pain. Her aim in this provocative yet balanced book is to: - Increase women's self-understanding and make them smarter consumers of counseling services. - Challenge the myths of womanhood--old and new--that pervade our culture and can skew the thinking of counselor and client alike. - Expose faulty assumptions about women and therapy that may sabotage a counselor's best efforts--and even increase the risk of sexual abuse. - Examine the politics of gender research--and show why data about sex differences is often manipulated and misinterpreted to further particular agendas. - Encourage women and their counselors to look at the business of healing with fresh hope, deeper understanding, and an abiding sense of compassion. Impeccably researched, highly readable, challenging but never strident, 'Women: The Misunderstood Majority' is designed to open eyes and heal hearts, and to open the way for more women to lead productive and fulfilling lives.

Download or read book The British Christian Women s Movement written by Jenny Daggers and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2002. This book presents a timely study of a neglected British Christian women's movement. Jenny Daggers charts the inception of the movement in the exciting times of the post-sixties decades, amid new currents generated in the British denominational churches, and the wider current of Women's Liberation. Focusing on Christian women's concern with the position of women in the church, this book identifies a core Christian women's theology which affirms a (rehabilitated) 'new Eve in Christ', and so contrasts with a concurrent paradigm shift taking shape in North American feminist theology. Daggers argues that this divergence is primarily due to the effect of the prolonged Church of England women's ordination debate upon the ethos of the British Christian women's movement.
