What does it mean to be male and female? Do women and men have different intellectual, spiritual, moral, or emotional capacities? Are women especially suited for serving and men for leading? Are women and men equal? While these may seem like relatively recent questions, they have been a topic of conversation throughout Christian history. At the center of this conversation is the biblical character Eve, the archetypal woman of Genesis 1-3. Not simply one woman among many, Eve comes to represent all women, defining the very essence of what it is to be female. As Eve was a woman, so all women were Eve, the conditions of her creation and her involvement in the Fall often serving as a justification for limitations placed on women and for their subordination to men. Over the centuries, women themselves have read and interpreted the story of Eve, scrutinizing the details of the text to discern God's word for them. Often their investigations led them to insights and interpretations that differed from dominant views, shaped as they were by men. The Gospel According to Eve traces the history of women's interpretation of Genesis 1-3, readings of Scripture that affirmed women's full humanity and equal worth. Biblical scholar Amanda Benckhuysen allows the voices of women from the past to speak of Eve's story and its implications for marriage, motherhood, preaching, ministry, education, work, voting, and more.

Such a great picture book. Fun, vibrant illustrations. It is so nice that As Brave as a Lion is also available in Spanish. A terrific storytime, bedtime and classroom read. The book is simple but with a great message. Highly recommend.

Love it
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
As Brave As A Lion is a needed, heartwarming, precious, whimsical, lesson-filled, and fun book! This wonderful story highlights fear, bravery, and risk taking. It is the perfect story to teach children the challenges of bravery and the reward of bravery. Sometimes someone helps us find our courage and other times we have to help them find theirs. In this story the young girl feels lots of emotions and faces several challenges. However, she knows that her lion is always there with her and draws on his strength. He is her best friend. One day a new super fast slide is put in at the playground. She is so excited to go on the slide.....until she reaches the top. When she turns to her lion, she sees he is scared too. Will they ever find the courage to go down the slide?
