Let these heroic "Mothers" of the Faith inspire and challenge you to fulfill your destiny and unique service to Christ. "No one is better equipped to write a book on Church Mothers than is Rev. Ehrenborg. She has not only extensively studied these women, but has also lived them in her dramatic performances. Well researched, the book is engaging and accessible to those in ministry as well as lay people, male and female. Indeed, this is a volume for men as much as it is for women. We all expand our horizons when we come to grips with the lives of our fascinating Church Mothers." RUTH A.

" 'Our Church Mothers' gives readers a chance to "meet" and appreciate seven faithful women whose service to the people of God spans over three millennia. Author Gwen Ehrenborg's choice to introduce us to them by composing letters from them based on serious historical research makes her book not only pleasurable but also inspiring. It deserves wide readership." E. CALVIN BEISNER, PH.D.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is the first book I will recommend to those who want to study what the Scriptures teach about the roles of men and women both in marriage and the church. . . I was amazed at how much wisdom is packed into this short book. Everything in the book is helpful, but the practical application section alone is worth the price of the book." — Thomas R. Schreiner, James Buchanan Harrison Professor of New Testament Interpretation, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary A Biblical Primer on Men and Women in the Church There is much at stake in God making humanity male and female. Created for one another yet distinct from each other, a man and a woman are not interchangeable—they are designed to function according to a divine fittedness. But when this design is misunderstood, ignored, or abused, there are dire consequences. Men and women—in marriage especially, but in the rest of life as well—complement one another. And this biblical truth has enduring, cosmic significance. From start to finish, the biblical storyline—and the design of creation itself—depends upon the distinction between male and female. Men and Women in the Church is about the divinely designed complementarity of men and women as it applies to life in general and especially ministry in the church.
Book Synopsis Church Mother by : Katharina Schütz Zell
Download or read book Church Mother written by Katharina Schütz Zell and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2007-11-01 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imbued with character and independence, strength and articulateness, humor and conviction, abundant biblical knowledge and intense compassion, Katharina Schütz Zell (1498–1562) was an outspoken religious reformer in sixteenth-century Germany who campaigned for the right of clergy to marry and the responsibility of lay people—women as well as men—to proclaim the Gospel. As one of the first and most daring models of the pastor’s wife in the Protestant Reformation, Schütz Zell demonstrated that she could be an equal partner in marriage; she was for many years a respected, if unofficial, mother of the established church of Strasbourg in an age when ecclesiastical leadership was dominated by men. Though a commoner, Schütz Zell participated actively in public life and wrote prolifically, including letters of consolation, devotional writings, biblical meditations, catechetical instructions, a sermon, and lengthy polemical exchanges with male theologians. The complete translations of her extant publications, except for her longest, are collected here in Church Mother, offering modern readers a rare opportunity to understand the important work of women in the formation of the early Protestant church.
Download or read book (A)Typical Woman written by Abigail Dodds and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2019-01-17 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Woman Through and Through In a culture that can belittle womanhood on the one hand—making it irrelevant—and glorify it on the other—making it everything—it’s hard to know what it really means to be a woman. But when we understand womanhood through the lens of Scripture, we see that we need a bigger category for what God has called “woman.” This book breathes fresh air into our womanhood, reminding us what life in Christ—as a woman—looks like. When we see that we are women in all we do, we can be at peace with how God has created us, recognizing womanhood as an essential part of Christ’s mission and work.

Albert Mohler Jr., President, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary Experience the Fullness of God's Grace in the Local Church Many new believers have questions about what it means to live as a Christian in the context of a local church, and pastors are looking for resources to pass along to their congregations to help them think biblically about the Christian life.
