Biblical womanhood - the belief that God designed women to be submissive wives, virtuous mothers, and joyful homemakers - pervades North American Christianity. 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 Baylor University historian Beth Allison Barr. It was born in a series of clearly definable historical moments.

A very challenging read/listen
Reviewed: 02-14-25
Don’t read this book if you’re not ready to honestly look at the Bible and what it says about women’s role in the family of God without being willing to to accept your preconceived and taught notions may be wrong. I’ll be working through the implications of Barr’s work for a while.

A challenging must read for any Christian seeking to love image bearers of God after the manner of Christ
Reviewed: 02-11-25
A loving and very well researched and thought out wrestling with how Christian’s should interact with people who experience or identify with transgenderism and/or gender incongruity. While not every Christian will agree with all of Preston’s conclusions I pray that all Christian’s who take the time to read or listen to this book will be able to see those image bearers struggling with these gender and identity complexities as people who need to be loved and discipled by compassionate and understanding followers of Christ. Slow to speak, slow to anger and quick to listen.

David Platt Masterfully treks with you along the Himalayas of the heights of mountain tops and the depths of human sinfulness. Through this engaging story Platt exposes the needs of the unreached as he vulnerably shares the struggles he faces while hiking in the Himalayas. Not only the needs but also some inspirational individuals being used by God to share Gods love both through Gospel proclamation and meeting peoples physical and temporary needs like freedom, food, water, medication and education. This book will challenge you as Pastor Platt asks himself and in turn you what it is that needs to change?
