From choices about careers to roles in local churches to relationship dynamics, this belief shapes the everyday lives of evangelical women. Yet biblical womanhood isn't biblical, says historian Beth Allison Barr. It arose from a series of clearly definable historical moments.Barr presents historical insights and shares a better way forward for the contemporary church by ● giving context for contemporary teachings about women's roles in the church ● explaining why biblical womanhood is more about human power structures than the message of Christ● interweaving her story and experiences as a Baptist pastor's wife● shedding light on the #ChurchToo movement and abuse scandals in Southern Baptist circles and the broader evangelical worldThis book moves the conversation about biblical womanhood beyond Greek grammar and into the realm of church history--ancient, medieval, and modern--to show that this belief is not divinely ordained but a product of human civilization that continues to creep into the church."A powerful work of skillful research and personal insight."--Publishers WeeklyChristianity Today 2022 Book Award Finalist (History & Biography) ● Foreword INDIES 2021 Finalist for ReligionCountry/Region of Manufacture: USGenre: Philosophy & SpiritualityTopic: Gender Sex & RelationshipsRelease Year: 2021 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
