What's With Paul and Women

Forever it seems the gender question rages in religious circles. Arguments range from polemics on both sides of the subject to purely theologically works in support of a hallowed religious tradition… Most of these are leveled by the high and mighty of religious intellectuals of christian institutionalism in a delivery that is hard to get one’s head around. Jon Zens, a simple church pioneer, seeks to make the entire subject accessible to any believer. His work will combat the faulty ideas of the highest of intellectuals yet it is understandable to the most common person who seeks to follow Christ. This book will challenge ingrained traditions and provide hope and freedom to many, both male and female. It marshals an immense amount of sourcing to help blow the cover on the charade of religious hegemony. We need not fear women unshackled from religious traditions based in purposeful mistranslations. Jesus honored all women in any level of ministry. Paul, aside from ancient to modern religious spin, encouraged women and allowed them to minister as equals to men. Join Jon in combating religious foolishness and proclaiming freedom to the oppressed and silenced gender.
