I really enjoyed this book, it is helpful and practical, providing real steps that can be taken at to bridge gaps in leadership in the church or in the secular realm. She identifies the problem and its roots in our society in various places, but spends more time outlining those those ways we can do things better versus dwelling on the problem. I would recommend this book to those who are truly passionate about healthy leadership teams.

RATING 3.5 STARS

I believe gender inequity is at the heart of the world's greatest felt needs. And there is an answer. Reconciliation is pulsing as a kingdom idea that will meet the deepest needs of our time.

Sexism, gender equality, and calling the Holy Spirit of feminism take. So there is much here. When I read a Christian book such as this, I like to see it thru the lens of the gospel. In that view point, I just saw a one sided gospel. The victimization of women. I am not denying that however, men and Women are to blame for the divide. It starts at home. This was not mentioned as well. I think the author experiences it in her own home, however, a family that works well together for the gospel will be better equipped to work well in community.

Another issue that was difficult for me is the gender of God. In the bible as you read it, there is no she but he. The author feels that because of that, we have a major problem in inequity. This is dangerous ground in how we view God. We are made in his image not hers. God does not rate women as the lessor but as partner, a helper.

Oppression comes in many different forms. I have seen both men and women in these roles. However, the author does offer value to what can be accomplished if there is healing and reconciliation. Repentance on both sides of the gender issue is a great start.

A Special Thank you to Thomas Nelson and Netgalley for the ARC and the opportunity to post an honest review
