God's Original Design: Finding the Freedom to Lead
Discover for yourself what God has to say about women. Often Scripture has been used to forbid women roles of leadership in faith communities. But what does the Bible really say? Explore from Genesis to Ephesians, passages that speak to the role and value of women. Read how Jesus interacted with women. Rediscover God’s original design, the Holy Spirit’s empowerment, and Jesus’ restoration of women. Current and historical culture has shaped women’s roles in the Christian community. Take a fresh look at key passages and consider how God is speaking to you as a leader for today.
The study includes special readings, biblical insights, short video messages from the author, and recommended resources. Whether you study on your own or as part of a group, the book is beautifully designed for daily study over a five-week period. All are encouraged to seek the Lord through the study and determine for themselves God’s Original Design.
