Book Description
"I do not permit a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man but to be in silence." 1st Timothy 2:12 is one in a short list of passages that have been used by male leadership in religious arenas to justify the institutional exclusion of the Woman Believer from significant leadership roles. Christian and non-Christian circles alike have subjected the woman to this spiritual oppression and used the Bible to justify it as an act of God.GOD's Gals gives proof that this passage has been misunderstood due to a faulty translation and because we totally missed the subject-Honoring the Spiritual Authority of God's Word. The accurate translation of this passage along with information regarding the social environment of Paul's day make a rather strong case that the Partially Redeemed Woman theology is not an act of God but a glaring indictment against man's ruler complex.The Bible contends that all believers have been destined to live in the freedom that Christ's death provided (Galatians 5:1) and the author believes that this book will play a part once and for all in releasing every oppressor and oppressed woman. LET THE HEALING BEGIN.

Bad Girls of the Bible
Author: Liz Curtis Higgs
Publisher: WaterBrook
ISBN: 0307731979
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
Ten of the Bible’s best-known femmes fatales parade across the pages of this popular and unforgettable study with situations that sound oh-so-familiar. Women everywhere marvel at those “good girls” in Scripture–Sarah, Mary, Esther–but on most days, that’s not who they see when they look in the mirror. Most women (if they’re honest) see the selfishness of Sapphira or the deception of Delilah. They catch of glimpse of Jezebel’s take-charge pride or Eve’s disastrous disobedience. Like Bathsheba, Herodias, and the rest, today’s modern woman is surrounded by temptations, exhausted by the demands of daily living, and burdened by her own desires. So what’s a good girl to do? Learn from their lives, says beloved Bible study teacher and speaker Liz Curtis Higgs, and choose a better path. Whether they were “Bad to the Bone,” “Bad for a Season, but Not Forever” or only “Bad for a Moment,” these infamous sisters show women how not to handle the challenges of life. With her trademark humor and encouragement, Higgs combines a contemporary retelling of the stories of these “other women” in Scripture with a solid, verse-by-verse study to teach us how to avoid their tragic mistakes and joyfully embrace grace. Let these Bad Girls show you why studying the Bible has never been more fun! Includes Discussion Questions and Study Guide

Gay Girl, Good God
Author: Jackie Hill Perry
Publisher: B&H Publishing Group
ISBN: 1462751237
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 140
Book Description
“I used to be a lesbian.” In Gay Girl, Good God, author Jackie Hill Perry shares her own story, offering practical tools that helped her in the process of finding wholeness. Jackie grew up fatherless and experienced gender confusion. She embraced masculinity and homosexuality with every fiber of her being. She knew that Christians had a lot to say about all of the above. But was she supposed to change herself? How was she supposed to stop loving women, when homosexuality felt more natural to her than heterosexuality ever could? At age nineteen, Jackie came face-to-face with what it meant to be made new. And not in a church, or through contact with Christians. God broke in and turned her heart toward Him right in her own bedroom in light of His gospel. Read in order to understand. Read in order to hope. Or read in order, like Jackie, to be made new.
