A Maid to Order Bible
Finally Feminist: A Pragmatic
Christian Understanding of Gender

Baker Academic, 2005

reviewed by S. M. Hutchens

In the early days of Evangelical feminism, attempts at persuasion tended to concentrate on reinterpretation of the patriarchalist seats of doctrine, especially in the writings of the unfortunate St. Paul, who was viewed as having a particularly difficult time saying what he meant.
