Woman this is WAR! Gender Slavery and the Evangelical Caste System, comprehensively addresses complementarianism [also called complementarity or patriarchy], which teaches that all men and women are born into a caste system that follows them from the moment they exit the womb throughout all eternity. Men are alleged to be born into the leader caste and women into the follower caste.
The book gives rare and nuanced insights into Christian initiatives in the movements for women’s rights that have either been deliberately or inadvertently kept out of Christian literature. These insights bring new perspective, along with freedom and hope.
Woman this is WAR! Gender, Slavery and the Evangelical Caste System covers:
•
Misogynistic Bible translation and commentary – How historical interpretations have affected gender relations and spiritual understanding
•
Historical parallels – Connections between abolition and women's rights movements
•
Early Christian feminists – Tracing women's rights activism back to godly Christian women who pioneered the movement
•
Christian initiatives in women's rights – Historical insights often overlooked in Christian literature
•
Gender equality in faith – How women's rights and the gospel's work have been hindered by gender-based restrictions
This is an examination of how biblical misinterpretation has shaped gender dynamics within evangelical Christianity.

This book is well written, well researched, and a real eye opener. When one is changed by the spirit of God and comes into right relationship with Him, through Jesus, then the words of the Bible come alive, and He is revealed on every page. The honest student of scripture will look into the Greek, and Hebrew text, to know what is said to understand "apparent" contradictions. The scripture was not written in English. What is very clear in the text is that men and women in God's church (not the institutions) are equal in worth before God, and there is no such thing as "men rule and women submit". The false "teachers" in Christianity need to be exposed for their greed and lust for power over others. I believe that process will be ongoing. ~~ Elise

Living in a predominantly Baptist area, women are taught to submit to their husbands. And I have struggled with what was being preached behind the pulpit many, many times.
Ms. Andersen’s novel is a game changer. We shouldn’t simply accept what is being interpreted and fed to us. We should do our research and not be afraid to question inconsistencies.
Women can lead. And women should lead. ~~ Kristine

Andersen is a gifted writer, and the book was easy to read even as it covers thoughtful and sometimes technical information. I am glad I read it. I’ve read a great deal about women in the church and home, and it is easy to think there is nothing new to be learned or considered – but this book has a unique approach and covers aspects overlooked by others. Everything is well documented with footnotes in case you have questions or want sources. ~~ L. Martin

If you think Jocelyn Andersen's title of her new book is inflammatory, and loaded with gender-bias, please note that she is quoting the attitude of John MacArthur in his introduction to "The Fulfilled Family," "Gentlemen, don't even think about marriage until you have mastered the art of warfare."
Andersen shares with us the horrific pattern she discovered in her research--a pattern of war against women--especially in Christian churches. Although disagreements abound between denominations, the attitude toward women is very similar in nearly all of them. Even some women join in the war against women. Although similar to the cold war against the USSR, with propaganda and innuendo being the key tools, it is also a war that has been and is being waged from many pulpits. Scripture has been twisted, mistranslated, and misinterpreted, and the twists, mistranslations, and misinterpretations repeated until a large majority of Christians believe the human changes to scripture ARE scripture, and insist that to deviate from the misinformation they have been taught is to rebel against God. ~~ Waneta Dawn

Many people find the prophetic aspect of the Bible difficult to understand and therefore, they ignore it. Having been a student of Biblical prophecy for years, I was curious to see how this author handled all the intense subjects. I'm happy to say she did so with great clarity and ease. This book is not just about prophecy but about God's plan for mankind from the Garden of Eden, to the prophetic sacrifice of Jesus on the Cross to save us, and finally to God's plan for the end of the age, which we are fast approaching. If you want a clear and easy to read study on God's plan for the Redemption of mankind and a great overview of events to soon take place, this is the book for you. Highly recommended ~~ ML Tyndall
