    Is there anything unique about being a woman? 

    God’s Word says yes! Men and women are absolutely equal in dignity. They are also significantly different. Women are only honoured (and fulfilled) when both truths are celebrated. Read this revised edition of Sharon James’ God’s Design for Women if you want to find out about:   


    * The positive impact Christianity has had on women throughout history
    * The various waves of feminism right up to the #MeToo movement
    * The Bible’s teaching about equality and complementarity 
    * A survey of views on women’s ministry
    * An overview of biblical ministries of women
    * A biblical perspective on work, singleness, marriage and motherhood

    God's Design for Women

    I heartily recommend this book if you want to have a comprehensive grasp of what the Bible says about gender, along with well–researched historical and social commentary. It is quite dense reading, but well worth the time and effort. The exhaustive endnotes and a study guide complement the content.

    God's Design for Women

    This book will inspire you to fulfil the God given design for women, individually and collectively; to remove the idols of our time and to shine like stars in this generation. (Elinor Magowan, FIEC Women’s Ministry Coordinator)

    God's Design for Women

    A rare, wise and essential text to be read by men and women. (Ben Virgo, Christian Heritage London)

    God's Design for Women

    Sharon avoids the pitfalls of gender–stereotyping and also holds out the gospel to those who have been wounded in this fallen world. Her close attention to the biblical text is both refreshing and liberating. (Genevieve T Jennings, Pastoral Worker Eden Baptist Church, Cambridge)

    God's Design for Women

    Insightful, instructive and inspiring, this book brings a refreshingly calm, warm and intelligent voice to the present debate on the identity and role of women. (Melvin Tinker, Vicar of St John Newland, Hull)

    God's Design for Women

    Our challenge is to ‘have confidence to live out, and tell out, what God says about sexuality, and about how to live a truly happy and fulfilled life’. This book will equip women of all ages to do so, and will also give confidence to Christian men to live out their God–given calling in right relationship to women. (Julia Jones, Director of Women’s courses at London Seminary, and missionary support worker with Grace Baptist Mission)

    Julia Jones

    God's Design for Women

    A biblically faithful and pastorally sensitive affirmation of God’s clear design for women, which engages with many of the contemporary debates. Highly recommended. (Paul Mallard, Pastor, Widcombe Baptist Church, Bath)
