“Here is a book that focuses on the possibilities and not just the problems of ministry among women. It is written by women from a wide range of ministry contexts, but all with hearts that beat with a common gospel rhythm. Every chapter is grounded in scripture and wonderfully practical. Women and men of the word, read it and be encouraged by all the gospel possibilities.”
