Publisher's Synopsis
This loving yet fearless book urges today's church to move beyond man-made restrictions and fully welcome women's diverse voices and experiences. Sarah Bessey, through disarmingly intimate storytelling, tells how she grew to understand the story of God and the vastness of his work through women. Never one to shy away from the hard questions, Bessey engages critically with Scripture and church practices that are often used against full equality and shares how following Jesus made a feminist out of her. Filled with beauty, hard truth, and brave vulnerability, Jesus Feminist urges the Church to stop asking 'man or woman?' as a qualification for ministry and to start helping everyone find freedom in the fullness, hope, glory and work of Christ.
