Intertwining academic knowledge and candid, personal, and sometimes humorous stories, Julie Faith Parker helps readers engage biblical texts with both mind and heart--to learn the Bible's stories, explore theological ideas, question common assumptions, develop interpretive skills, and grow in their own faith.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe title chapter demonstrates how feminism interprets the Bible with fresh eyes and offers empowering insights, an approach used in the rest of the book. In each chapter, Parker reads biblical texts through a feminist lens. The book discusses both neglected and well-known Old Testament passages with one chapter on the New Testament. Parker's reflections show how vital our readings of the Bible can be as a source of strength, guidance, and joyful defiance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAdditional features include questions for conversation or reflection and an overview of the entire Bible, summarizing each book in one line.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Julie Faith Parker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1540965392\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781540965394\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Baker Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/12\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.43h x 5.43w x 0.47d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/14\/2023","brand":"Julie Faith Parker","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44170065969407,"sku":"9781540965394","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fb8f3230-e914-4f39-bdc3-6d5ef44bec7a.jpg?v=1689656602","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/eve-isnt-evil-julie-faith-parker-9781540965394","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
