New Books to Help You Minister to Women

Most women have many different roles and often feel as if they are failing in all of them. These 2019 new releases can equip you and your staff to better understand and help the women inside and outside of your church see their identity in Christ.

(A)Typical Woman: Free, Whole and Called in Christ by Abigail Dodds (Crossway) helps readers understand womanhood through the lens of Scripture.

Disciple Her: Using the Word, Work and Wonder of God to Invest in Women by Kandi Gallaty (B&H Publishing) helps readers develop an effective disciple-making strategy in their life and the lives of others.

Empty Nest, Full Life: Discovering God’s Best for Your Next by Jill Savage (Moody) guides women through this unpredictable time of life, showing them how to let go of mixed emotions and grab hold of life here and now.

• Bethany House Publishers’ Exhale: Lose Who You’re Not, Love Who You Are, Live Your One Life Well by Amy Carroll and Cheri Gregory walks women through a process that releases them from the things that have created unbearable pressure in their lives.

Rediscovering Scripture’s Vision for Women: Fresh Perspectives on Disputed Texts by Lucy Peppiatt (InterVarsity Press) looks at relevant passages in Ephesians, Colossians, 1 Peter, 1 Timothy and 1 Corinthians to discuss women working alongside men in all forms of ministry, leadership and service on the basis of character and gifting.

Leading With Kindness

Kindness isn’t weakness, it’s the expression of strength from someone who has something to offer. Kindness is not automatic, it’s a gift that you must choose to give.

Evangelism and the Privatization of Faith

Make friends, in your own way, and avoid isolating yourself—be open to show and share the love of God.
