    About this ebook

    Biblical womanhood is not for the weak. In an age that seeks to obliterate God and His authority, modeling biblical womanhood involves spiritual warfare. RadicalWomanhood seeks to equip new believers and long-time Christians alike, exposing the anti-God agenda of the three waves of feminism to date and presenting the pro-woman truth of the Scriptures. Illustrated with numerous personal testimonies, this book will dig deep into the Word and show how it can be lived out today. The foundation and core message of Radical Womanhood is consistent with the traditional complementarian teaching on biblical womanhood. However, the target audience, tone, and style are radically different. Most books on this subject take a heavily didactic tone that assumes an awareness of Christian lingo and a high degree of spiritual maturity. Radical Womanhood has the narrative approach appreciated by postmodern readers, but still incorporates solid, biblically-based teaching for personal application and growth.

      I learned a lot about the history of the feminist movement while reading this book. The author gives really good information about this, along with the Biblical response to the feminist world. She then shares testimonies of people at the end of each chapter, that dealt with the issues in that chapter, which were also very good. It was a well balanced book that I highly recommend. The back cover of this book describes it well: "How can we understand the delicate balance of cultural influence, historical perspective, and biblical authority when it comes to our role as women in the home, workplace, church, and culture? In what ways have the three waves of feminism hindered God's vision for women?" "Written by a former feminist who now finds herself embracing the distinctions between men and women, 'Radical Womanhood' will equip women from all different perspectives and backgrounds to understand what it means to be a woman."

      What an amazing book. So rich in biblical truth and history. The historical survey were very helpful for my understanding of the issues discussed. Highly recommended.

      Radical Womanhood: Feminie Faith in a Feminist World wasn’t exactly what I expected. I thought there would be a greater emphasis on what radical womanhood from a biblical standpoint looked like. That being said, this is an amazing book and wonderful resource for understanding how feminism has shaped our culture and altered Christianity in America.This is a must-read for women, whether Christian or not. This book goes beyond the surface of what we think feminism is or was (burning bras, anyone?). I for one, grew up thinking feminism was a good idea or at least what I thought it was. I wouldn’t have called myself a feminist. I knew men were important and vital to society and family, but that didn’t stop me from “breaking an ego” (as my friends and I called it) or saying that I can (or should) be able to do anything a guy could do. I’m thankful I realized the truth before I cracked into The Feminine Mystique.Radical Womanhood takes you on a journey of the history of feminism, its implications for society and the Church, and what the Scriptures have to say. It’s a very easy to read and written in a friendly manner, with real life stories following each chapter. What I really enjoyed about this book, aside from the history lesson, is that McCulley articulates so well the response I wish I had in discussing biblical womanhood in today’s world.Why do you need to read this book? As the author, Carolyn McCulley puts it, " …chances are that there are aspects of your femininity that have been negatively impacted by feminism, no matter how you identify yourself now. That’s why I believe it is important to examine the history of feminism, how it has affected our culture and our churches, and how its claims stand up to the teaching of Scripture. (p. 28)"The objective to gain "a better understanding of why God made men and women in His image–two sexes, equal in worth and dignity–and why He assigns different roles to us in order to accomplish His purposes in His kingdom."
