Summary: response
Review: I agree -- please read this book with the holy spirit guiding you. Period. Two quotes from the book ... 'One day the Lord will come and ask me, "what have you done with the talent that I have entrusted to you."' ... "why do you try to hide your gifts? Don't you think that you coud be a complement your husband? You are not competing with him; you could be a team." I have found the messages within this book thought-provoking, refreshing and scripturally based -- a challenge to give God and my husband my best as a woman.

Summary: Deception within the church
Review: I have read this book. The book states clearly at the end that the purpose of the book is to establish the women's feminist movement within the traditional church. Once the movement gains critical mass, there will be no stopping it. The book is not about the dignity of women, nor about the topic of risk-taking. The book promotes a false religion of feminism and takes it from its satanic and secular roots into the church of God.

The presentation is clever and refined, but the message is clear. Books like this and the organizations behind them have a goal to disarm the church with false teaching and doctrines of demons.

Please read this book with the holy spirit to guide you so you may be aware of the deception that is going around the churches and take a firm stand for the truth.

Summary: Bound to be a classic on Christian women of faith.
Review: Sandwiched between a fascinating historical account of women in the Church and a call for women to be released in their God-given areas of ministry, Lutz and Christenson chronical the lives of 12 contemporary Christian women who risked themselves for the work of the kingdom. This book is a must-read for every woman who feels even a nudge towards Christian service, either lay or clergy. With Bill Hybels and Stuart and Jill Bricoe as examples, Lutz and Christenson make an empassioned case for the Church to free women to become all God intends them to be.

Summary: A refreshing look at women's roles in the "Church."
Review: This book gives a vary positive view of women's roles in the "Church." It does not male bash but takes an encouraging, "come onlong side" view of how God intended men and women to work together for the advancement of the Kingdom of our Lord. I look forward to studying this subject more indepth with the help of the bibliography in the back.
