Information About the Book

a high view of Scripture, the authors explain foundational
texts from both the Old and New Testaments pertaining to the
role of women in the home, the church, and society. Sections
such as “Maleness and Femaleness in the Old Testament” and “Jesus’ Treatment
of Women” lead to appropriate discussions of for local
churches. Easy
to read explanations and practical applications help both men
and women understand how they can interpret what the Bible
says about women in ministry and leadership.
The book contains a bibliography, glossary and downloadable
