The author offers a new perspective on the debate between evangelical feminists and traditionalists by placing each belief system into its historical and cultural context, and then evaluating each position in light of that context. Those "caught in the conflict" will gain a clearer understanding of women's roles in the church today.

I can still love God without pretending I'm an air head,

This review is from: Women Caught in the Conflict: The Culture War Between Traditionalism and Feminism (Paperback)
This book is an awesome indepth study of where the traditions of society have been layed on Women as God's commandments. I personally found it comforting to know that there are other christian women who are struggling with this battle. Sometimes are church services sound more like a meeting of "The He-man Woman Haters Club" (As the Little Rascals called themselves.) I think this book should be read be any female christian or non-believer to help all of us understand why MAN believes what he believes and what God actually did and did not say. I really am impressed with this book and I don't impress easily.
Happy Reading.

Excellent, ground-breaking treatment of the issue.,
This review is from: Women Caught in the Conflict: The Culture War Between Traditionalism and Feminism (Paperback)
This is a well-documented, carefully argued, and civil discussion of the relationship between Christianity and feminism. The author convincingly shows that not all feminism is alike, and that biblical feminists (or egalitarians) have not capitulated to secular trends. She outlines how egalitarians can base their thinking squarely on the Bible itself. She continues her analysis in the sequel, Good News for Women: A Biblical Picture of Gender Equality (Baker Books, 1997), which addresses the theological issues in more depth.Reviewed by Douglas Groothuis, Ph.D., Professor of Philosophy, Denver Seminary
