God's Word to Women by Katharine C. Bushnell Pdf

In this new 2016 edition, Amy Francis gives a historical review of the Biblical sources to which Kathleen Bushnell refers in her landmark analysis of the changing interpretation of the Hebrew source documents. This, and a fresh re-imagining of Bushnell's info-graphic, will assist readers in following her closely-argued case. - * - * - * - * - * - * - * - * - * - * - Biblical scholar, social activist, physician and missionary and linguist, Katherine Bushnell was an extraordinarily gifted and inspirational leader frequently credited with the awakening of the women's empowerment movement within the Church. In her masterpiece, God's Word to Women, she carefully argues the case that women should learn directly from the words of God, by educating themselves and taking the initiative. A timeless classic that includes her stunning chart explaining how male scholars, perhaps unintentionally, have changed their choice of words down the centuries, leaving the current English versions of the bible attributing "lust" or "desire" to women, when these sentiments may not have been in the original biblical source documents.

Worthy by Elyse Fitzpatrick,Eric Schumacher Pdf

What does the Bible say about the value of women? Does the Bible teach that women are as valuable as men or does it portray them as somehow more flawed, more suspect, or weak and easily deceived? Beginning from Genesis and working all the way through the storyline of the Bible, Worthy demonstrates the significant and yes, even surprising, ways that God has used women to accomplish His kingdom goals. Because, like men, they are created in His image, their lives reflect and declare His worth. Worthy will enable and encourage both men and women to embrace this true and lofty vision of God's creation, plan, and their value in His eyes. Bestselling author Elyse Fitzpatrick and pastor Eric Schumacher together invite women to embrace a transformative and empowering view of their Maker, themselves, and the church. But this isn't only a book for women. It is also a book for men, especially leaders, who want to grow in their understanding of God's perspective on women, people who normally make up the majority of their congregations; men who might be wondering if they've missed something amid the abuse scandals that are rocking the church. Might the headlines they're reading today about abuse have their roots in a denigration of the value and worth of women? Worthy: Celebrating the Value of Women will help every reader see the value, place, and calling of women through study questions and a "Digging Deeper" section that will help men and women discover how to cherish, value, and honor one another for God's glory.

God's Word to Women by Katharine C. Bushnell Pdf

From Genesis to Revelation, Katharine C. Bushnell provides a thorough exposition of every Bible passage that touches on women. As a scholar of Hebrew and Greek, she studies the passages in their original languages and in their historical context, discovering insights sometimes obscured by Bible translators. The book emerged from Bushnell's lifetime of working for social reform on behalf of women, in which she observed correlations between the status of women and misunderstandings of Scripture. Scholars have leaned on her groundbreaking work since its first publication in 1921, deeming it one of the best, whole-Bible approaches to the question of women's role in the church and home.

Becoming Women of the Word by Sarah Christmyer Pdf

Winner of a 2020 Catholic Press Association book award (third place, scripture-popular studies). The women God called to bring his chosen people into the world were ordinary women who struggled with emptiness, oppression, infertility, and loss—yet who found strength and hope in God. In her first book, Sarah Christmyer—codeveloper of The Great Adventure Catholic Bible study program—pairs the stories of key Old Testament women with stories of women she has known to show us how we can hear God, say yes to his call, and share him with the world just as they did. Breaking open the scriptures to reveal the historical, cultural, and biblical context in which Old Testament women lived, Sarah Christmyer breathes new life into their stories and makes their lives surprisingly relatable. In the process, she shares stories from her own faith journey and the lives of family and friends to show how the same principles that turned ordinary women into heroines of the faith are true for our lives today. Each chapter of Becoming Women of the Word highlights the spiritual legacy of one or more women in the Old Testament. Their world was vastly different from ours, yet they faced the same questions we do: when we can’t feel God’s presence, where do we find help? When our world is collapsing, where is God? Why should we trust him? How can we trust him? Christmyer simply and clearly draws from the lives of these women important principles that help us to trust—even as we struggle with doubt. For example: Through Eve, we learn to hold on to God’s promise even when we fail. Sarah reminds us to wait on God’s timing to make us fruitful. Miriam, the sister of Moses, shows how to lead by example. Ruth and Esther challenge us to see womanhood as a gift. Hannah and Judith inspire us to trust God even in matters of life and death. These unforgettable portraits create a colorful mosaic of faith, encouraging us to mine God’s Word for spiritual treasure and to pass on the gift.

Foh investigates equality of image, functional subordination, the concept of "one flesh" and all believers being "one body."
