Grace Sufficient : A History Of Women In American Methodism 1760-1968
$40.99Histories of women and American religion have tended to focus on women’s religious activities rather than on women’s religious lives. Studies of early American religion and spirituality have usually depended on the journals and sermons of male preachers. In order to understand the religious lives of ordinary Methodist women, Jean Miller Schmidt has looked at their diaries, letters, spiritual autobiographies, and the accounts of their pious lives and holy deaths that appeared as obituaries in publications like the Methodist Magazine. These powerful stories of faith are part of the shared history of Methodist people.

Duh Votions : Words Of Wisdom For The Spiritually Challenged
$14.99You Don’t Have to Be Deep to Hear God’s Voice!
It’s so simple! So simple a shallow person can understand it. What I’ve found out about God is that he is totally trustworthy, and I can relax in his plans. And besides that, all he wants is – are you ready for this? – for me to be his person. Just be his person, for heaven’s sake! All I can say to that is, Duh! Who knows? Next I may be writing a six-volume Bible commentary! – Sue Buchanan in Duh-VotionsMeet Sue Buchanan. She says to audiences, “I may as well tell you because you’ll figure it out anyway: I’m not that deep. I’m shallow. But I’m deep for a shallow person.”
Sue offers a merry and witty look at life from the “shallow” end of the gene pool in sixty fun devotions. From entertaining angels with chicken andaluza to listing her not-so-favorite blond jokes, from a debate on Spam vs. baloney to dramas between mothers and daughters, she’ll make you laugh . . . and think about some important lessons in life.
This very funny lady shows us all that we don’t have to be “deep” to hear God’s voice. All we have to do is listen and we’ll find his message about love and redemption in even the smallest details of everyday life.

Women Of The Passion
$16.00The Women of the Passion offers a completely fresh and challenging perspective on the key events in the life of Jesus and his followers, seeing them from the point of view of the women present. aaJesus’ human life begins with a young girl courageously saving yes to a startling plan. At his death, when his disciples have fled, Mary stands at the foot of the cross with her sister and friend and share in the bitter agony of it all. Distraught, but unafraid to face the Roman guard, a group of women bring anointing spices to the tomb only to find it empty… And on that wonderful Easter morning, it is to a woman that the resurrected Christ first appears. Other women are strangely affected by only the remotest encounter – the servant girl who accuses Peter on the night of Jesus’ trial and sees the piercing look that reduces the headstrong disciple to shameful weeping, Pilate’s wife who has a troubled night on Jesus’ account and begs her husband to leave well alone.aaTheir voices speak with clarity and directness down the c

About The Author P. 178Additional Info
TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSEDFrom her early life in Harlem, to leading New York’s oldest American Baptist church as its first female pastor, to becoming a wife and a mother, to a recent appointment on President Clinton’s Initiative on Race and Reconciliation, Dr. Suzan Johnson Cook is living proof that stress doesn’t have to stress you out. In Too Blessed to Be Stressed, Cook shares her testament of faith and proceeds through the seasons of her life, slowing down along the way to provide some of her favorite gospel hymns as well as the touching stories that are behind the songs you know and love so well.
Cook is quick to point out the many changes that will come in life – both good and bad – then focuses on the one thing that is unchanging and constant…God. He “is the same yesterday, today, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8). And He has blessings prepared for you – blessings that will keep you sane when the rest of the world goes crazy.

I Suffer Not A Woman
$37.64I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
–1 Timothy 2:12 KJV
This passage troubles those who desire greater leadership roles for women in ministry but who also want to remain loyal to Scripture. Did Paul forbid a woman to exercise her leadership and teaching gifts, or was he dealing with a particular error in the church?
According to I Suffer Not a Woman, Paul was reacting to a specific problem that was sweeping churches: a myth, taught mostly by women, which later became a foundation for gnosticism. This book offers an in-depth look at the Greek text of 1 Timothy 2:11-15 in the context of the Pastoral Epistles and in its historical context. By illuminating the first-century culture of Ephesus, the Kroegers shed light on the ancient world thought patterns Paul faced and offer a responsible alternative understanding of this much debated passage.
I Suffer Not a Woman is well documented yet easily accessible. Illustrations and photographs provide a fascinating look at the ancient world. It was previously published by Baker in 1992.

By Design : Gods Distinctive Calling For Women
$22.50God did not make a mistake when He made men and women different. He had a distinctive plan and a distinctive purpose for each, stamping the helper design upon women at creation. This book is a joyous celebration of that profound fact. But it is more. It is a reliving cry to the church to retain one of its most valuable-and nearly forgotten-resources: its women.
By Design is not about answering feminist arguments or exegeting biblical passages on traditional roles, submission, or headship. Instead, it is an uplifting and practical introduction to God’s wonderful design for women. It is also a challenge to women everywhere to explore the significance of your distinctives and return to your biblical calling. And it is a plea for the church to equip and mobilize you to help a hurting world and capture a culture for Christ through ministries of mercy and compassion.
Like Susan Hunt’s previous works, Spiritual Mothering and The True Woman, this book is a strong affirmation of your value as a woman and a great resource for anyone involved in women’s ministries.

Caretakers Of Our Common House
$31.99North American culture bombards girls and women with negative and demeaning images of their gender. It trains girls and women to “give themselves away” by overemphasizing their caring for others and underdeveloping their sense of voice and personal authority. Carol Lakey Hess asks in this book whether caring families and the church can make a difference in the outcome of our daughters’ development. Weaving together theological, psychological, and biblical sources, Hess examines how theologians of self-sacrifice thwart both the spiritual and the psychological development of women by subverting their necessary self-assertion. The importance of self-differentiation and cognitive autonomy and of caring and connection are discussed, using as illustrations biblical stories, excerpts from novels, and an in-depth look at eating disorders.

You Have Stept Out Of Your Place
$58.00This book fills an important gap in American women’s history. The author manages to discuss four centuries of women’s experience in the United States clearly, inclusively, and with both a sensitivity to feminist issues and a faithfullness to women’s own experience that ensures this book will have a wide readership. This book spans a broad range of geographic, ethnic, racial and denominational range of American women’s religious experiences and contributions and attempts to preverse the intregrity and diversity of their voices. In the absense of strong counterevidence, the author has assumed that American women were basically telling the truth about who they were, what they did, and why they did it.
