Who Said Women Can't Teach?

Summary: One of the best books I've ever read
Review: And definitely the best book I've read on 'women and ministry'. My wife and I especially like the chapters about the judaistic traditions, and the chapters about the male-headship-problem. Well, the whole book is extremely relevant and well written. It seems to me that Trombley is a very thorough and skilled scholar. I recommend this book. Especially to men. We have so much to learn. Why are so few Christian people (men!) aware of the truths presented in this book? I can only recommend that you buy the book for you, your friends and your pastors.

Summary: AN INTELLIGENT, BALANCED LOOK AT SCRIPTURE VS. TRADITION
Review: Mr. Trombley gives a thorough examination of the commonly quoted teachings that keep women out of ministry positions. The references to historical church and Talmudic documents as well as current writing on the subject are presented clearly. It would be difficult to view Paul or God as misogynists or to view women as inferior beings created for the purpose of submission after reading this book. The conclusion is reached gently, after looking into the question deeply. It has been of tremendous value to me as a woman, answering many of the nagging questions I've had for years, in which my relationship with God didn't match what I learned about women in the church.
