Summary: In the Gospels various women are involved in Jesus' life. The book of Acts includes Lydia the converted businesswoman and Priscilla the fearless teacher. Both Testaments contain much about the life and ministry of women--in prayer, worship, marriage and leadership. The Tidballs' exposition begins with foundations in creation and the new creation, then proceeds to women under the old covenant, in the kingdom of God, and in the early church. Mindful of the complexities, the authors approach the Bible with humility while addressing relevant issues for today. -- Back Cover
