Women
“Some studies of biblical women gloss over contextual and interpersonal challenges and inconsistencies, leaving us with sappy platitudes and surface conclusions. Connor takes us deeper into the stories and their contexts. With her candid and conversational style, she reveals dimensions and aspects of women we malign, misunderstand, marginalize, silence, or ignore in our preaching and teaching. In the end, Connor shows us women who mirror who and what we are--sometimes flawed, misguided, ill-advised; yet also wise, clever, creative, subversive, and, you know, brave!”
