Description

What does the Bible actually say about women? This scripturally accurate book rejects harmful misinterpretations and reminds us of the dignity God places on His daughters, with a helpful guide for reflection and group discussion included.
 
In the wake of the Me Too and Church Too movements, many of our loved ones are leaving the church or questioning Christianity because the Bible has at times been misused against them. How do we help our loved ones understand Scripture accurately? 

Apologetics for Women

In this helpful look at God’s work of redemption from Creation to today, Wendy Alsup explores questions such as: 

• How does God view justice and equal rights for women?
• What does it mean to be made in the image of God?
• How have the centuries distorted our interpretation of how God views women?
• How did Jesus approach the Old Testament and how does that help us read difficult passages today?
• What is the difference between a modern view of feminism and the feminism that Scripture models?
• How does the Bible explain the Bible to us?

Using a Jesus-centered understanding to look at both God’s grand storyline and specific biblical passages, Alsup shows the noble ways God speaks to and about women in its pages. Most of all, she gives concrete tools for understanding Scripture to women who are questioning if the Bible is truly good for them.
