The best available on the subject

Too many women struggle with this question and too many men and women have upheld the view that women should not be leaders. Cunningham and Hamilton probe this question with contemporary experience, historical insight, and biblical orthodoxy. This is simply the best there is on the subject.^M

Why Not Women: A Biblical Study of Women in Missions, Ministry, and Leadership

As with most YWAM books this is GREAT! As a YWAM'ER for 21 years I recommend reading this and other books dispite what heitland says, the theology is terrific! I fgound it very clear, practical, and livable as well as true to the scriptures! So, with this book, it meets the Biblical criteria for teaching truth and making women free from domination, just as Jesus did with the woman taken in adultry - He did not go soft on sin but neither did He stone her. It is consistant with the words of Moses, "Let my people go!" Truely it shows that in Christ there is "neither male nor female".^M

Excellent introduction book

This is a great introduction to the issues and Scriptures surrounding women in the church. The main theme throughout is missions and sharing the Gospel.
