Book Review: SHE: Five Keys to Unlock the Power of Women in Ministry
By: Taylor Kropelin | October 16, 2017
The challenges of being in ministry are difficult to navigate, but for women, the challenges are unique and often more difficult.

Book Review: Yehudit: Chosen by God
By: Emily Louise Zimbrick-Rogers | October 4, 2017
Yehudit: Chosen by God is a rare book, difficult to classify. It is a fictionalized reimagining of the apocryphal book of Judith, a historical Christian romance, a devotional message to women, an egalitarian manifesto, and an invitation to follow Jesus. The author, Lauren Jacobs (who also goes by Aliyah), is equally a rare combination—Christian [...]
An Egalitarian Man Is Hard To Find
By: Kelci Straka | October 3, 2017
When I was six I asked my father, “Daddy, why can’t Mommy be a deacon?” I don’t remember my father’s response, but I remember puzzling over gender roles in my Southern church from an early age.
