Description:
Written with poetic rhythm, a prophetic voice, and a deeply biblical foundation, this loving yet fearless book urges todayÕs church to move beyond man-made restrictions and fully welcome womenÕs diverse voices and experiences.

A freedom song for the church.

Sarah Bessey didnÕt ask for Jesus to come in and mess up all her ideas about a womanÕs place in the world and in the church. But patriarchy, she came to learn, was not GodÕs dream for humanity.

Bessey engages critically with Scripture in this gentle and provocative love letter to the Church. Written with poetic rhythm, a prophetic voice, and a deeply biblical foundation, this loving yet fearless book urges todayÕs church to move beyond man-made restrictions and fully welcome womenÕs diverse voices and experiences.

ItÕs at once a call to find freedom in the fullness, hope, glory, and work of Christ, and a very personal and moving story of how Jesus made a feminist out of her.
