Daughters of Promise: A Father’s Bold Legacy highlights the often-overlooked story of Zelophehad and his five daughters, whose courageous appeal to Moses reshaped Israel’s inheritance laws and affirmed that God’s covenant promises belong to women as well as men, revealing the formative influence of a father who likely equipped his daughters to [...]
Priscilla and the Explosion of Women Church Planters Today: The Great Commission Is Not a Competition
By: Terran Williams | October 30, 2025
We should not look at women today through a mistranslation or interpretation of 1 Timothy 2:12 or any verse, but through the Great Commission, in which Jesus was emphatic that the whole church participate.

Lucretia Mott: Spiritual Warrior for Human Rights
By: Eliza Hodge Fitzgerald | September 26, 2024
In her day, it was said of Lucretia Mott, “There was...power in her calm, deliberate but pitiless logic that seemed to sway the minds of her hearers even against their will.” In a time when women were often not permitted to speak in public, “she spoke in public because she was conscious of a [...]
Why Mothers Matter as much as Fathers in Shaping our Perception of God
By: Susanne Maynes | September 12, 2024
God ordained families to ensure children are begotten and raised by both image-bearers—male and female. Do we honestly think the way a mother interacts with her growing children in their formative years has nothing to do with how they see God later in life?
