This week's episode features Leanne Dzubinski and Anneke Stasson, authors of the newly published book, Women in the Mission of the Church: Their Opportunities and Obstacles throughout Christian History. Leanne is associate dean, associate professor of intercultural education and studies, and director of the intercultural education graduate program at Biola University. Anneke is associate professor of humanities and history at Indiana Wesleyan University.
According to the publisher, Baker Academic,
"Women have been central to the work of Christian ministry and actively involved in the growth of the worldwide Christian church from the time of Jesus to the twenty-first century. Yet the story of Christianity is too often told as a story of men.
This accessibly written book tells the story of faithful women throughout church history, demonstrating their integral participation in the church's mission. It highlights the legacies of a wide variety of women, showing how they have overcome obstacles to their ministries and have transformed cultural constraints to spread the gospel and build the church. Each section of the book covers a different period of church history and introduces readers to significant women and themes of a specific era."
