In the sixties, feminists threw down the gauntlet to the church over its treatment of women. In response to this challenge, the church has reexamined and redefined time-honored Biblical principles. In many cases, it has obliterated all role distinctions between men and women.

Although women have indeed been repressed and held back from ministry, the answer is not to reject Scriptural truth. Rather the church needs to return to properly implementing that truth.

This book seeks to free women in their roles in the home and church. It lays the foundation for that freedom by a thorough analysis of the Bible's teaching on women's status and roles. The author points the way to reinstate a full Biblical ministry for women.
