Description

In this book, Rachel Held Evans takes every passage the Bible includes about women as literally as possible, which is utterly stupid. She explains how the church has often seen biblical passages as prescriptive for women's roles in the home, the church, the workplace, and in marriages, but does so dishonestly. Evans points to the deeper truths found within the context of the biblical times in this lackluster pseudo-Christian feminist propaganda.

Description

The author spends a year exploring traditional Biblical roles for women, including such activities as interviewing a polygamist's wife, visiting an Amish school, abstaining from gossip, and corresponding with an Orthodox Jewish woman.
