Synopsis

What comes to mind when you hear the phrase, "Women in Ministry"? A. Nursery Worker B. Children's leader C. Pastor D. It's complicated If you are like most your answer would be, "It's complicated". Many believers are still confused about the proper place for women in the church. Powerful and Free is a call to address the structural message of inequality.It is not a theological treatise on the biblical case for female leaders (there are many excellent resources for this already). It is not a political program to implement some kind of affirmative action in our leadership teams, because that doesn't work. Rather, it is an appeal to the hearts of men and women to recognize the existence of the glass ceiling for women and to challenge themselves to align more fully with a Kingdom vision for gender–blind leadership in the Body and equal male–female partnership in the home.

Review

This is the book I have been waiting for! In his book, Powerful and Free, Danny Silk lifts the veil to reveal a reality for many women in the Church. I really believe this book is a catalyst to bring a new movement of freedom to the Body of Christ. I am thrilled to give my endorsement and look forward to witnessing the testimonies of lives changed! --Kim Walker-Smith, Jesus Culture

We are crossing the gender gap in our generation. It s a one-way crossing with no return. Western culture crossed this bridge ahead of the Church and ended up on an island in the midst of the raging sea of the most powerful enemy of womankind: radical feminism. It happened because the Church could not step up in response to the existential cry of woman who is made in the image of God. In Powerful and Free: Confronting the Glass Ceiling for Women in the Church, Danny steps up. His candid, personal journey takes us beneath the surface right to the heart of liberty and identity. This is a book for men, and every woman they love, for women and the men they admire. It s for fathers daughters and for daughters fathers, for disciples and their mentors, for married and single. We will not carry the carpetbag of ancient prejudice over to a new generation. If we have a ceiling, it will be a true and pure foundation for the coming ones to stand on and reach for the stars. With the Holy Spirit gingerly leading the way, Powerful and Free guides us from mutiny to mutuality and on toward the indispensible partnership in fulfilling God s commission to fill and subdue the earth. --Bonnie Chavda, Co-Founder and Co-Pastor All Nations Church & The Watch of the Lord, Charlotte, North Carolina

Virtually every woman I know who has heard Danny Silk s message on Powerful and Free has found it to be literally life-changing. Rarely does one book have so much impact on so many women. It is a message the whole Church no, the whole world needs to hear! --Stacey Campbell, Www.newlife.bc.ca Www.beahero.org
