Professional Reviews |
| Professional Reviews | "This book is hard evidence that the churches have been deprived of a rich resource by their reluctance to receive women preachers. . . . These messages ring with passion and sincerity . . . they break through our narrow limits and speak generously about things that matter most." (Samuel D. Proctor, Martin Luther King, Jr., Professor Emeritus, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey) |
