Book Synopsis Battered Into Submission by : James Alsdurf
Download or read book Battered Into Submission written by James Alsdurf and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 1998-11-27 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each year three to four million women are severely assaulted by their husbands, ex-husbands or boyfriends. Battery is the single major cause of injury to women. And Christians are not exempt. Women are being choked, spat upon, hit, pushed, bitten, dragged by the hair and kicked -- by Christian husbands. Unfortunately, the church has all too often ignored this uncomfortable subject. Citing their finding from extensive research and summarizing eight years of interviews with victims, abusers, and pastors, James and Phyllis Alsdurf provide a comprehensive treatment of this troubling topic. They show the psychological, spiritual and personal impact of wife abuse and call the church to reexamine its role in addressing the issue.
Book Synopsis The Preacher's Wife by : Kate Bowler
Download or read book The Preacher's Wife written by Kate Bowler and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-09-15 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although most evangelical traditions bar women from ordained ministry, many women have carved out unofficial positions of power in their husbands' spiritual empires or their own ministries. The biggest stars write bestselling books, grab high ratings on Christian television, and even preach. Bowler offers a sympathetic and revealing portrait of megachurch women celebrities, showing how they must balance the demands of celebrity culture and conservative, male-dominated faiths. And black celebrity preachers' wives carry a special burden of respectability. A compelling account of women's search for spiritual authority in the age of celebrity. -- adapted from jacket
