On some level, we all know it: men and women are different. Sadly, for the most part the church has primarily acknowledged those differences in the arenas of role and function, and generally done so in ways that women have experienced as limiting rather than life-giving. Consequently, many women have turned to popular feminine spirituality offerings outside the Christian faith for more appealing and effectual spiritual growth paradigms. But if we look closely at the stories of women in Scripture we can find a uniquely feminine spirituality woven into these ancient accounts. Through stories of modern women coupled with those of key Biblical women, author Janet Davis offers us a revolutionary and transformative new understanding of the feminine soul. With the warmth of story to open the heart and questions designed to disrupt old patterns, this work is good news indeed, helping the blind to see, the lame to walk, and feminine souls to grow strong, beautiful, and free.
