Women as Christ's Disciples

When we think of New Testament disciples, it is not usually women who come to mind - but they should. Women were amongst Christ's earliest disciples. They have a prominence and responsibilities unknown in contemporaneous literature to the New Testament. Boyd Luter and Kathy McReynolds have collaborated to produce a unique celebration of women from a conservative theological viewpoint. They use examples of women during Christ's ministry and from the early church to develop a pattern of discipleship for today's Christian women. These first women disciples were strong, courageous models. Help develop your vital role in expressing God's image to your world. Don't hold back what God wants for you.

When we think of New Testament disciples, it is not usually women who come to mind - but they should. Women were Christ's earliest disciples but they seem to have been largely ignored by the conservative Protestant church as being something for the radical feminist fringe. Boyd Luter and Kathy McReynolds use examples of women during Christ's ministry and from the early church to develop a pattern of discipleship for women today. In doing so they set out to show how to radically affect the effectiveness of the whole church. These first women disciples were strong and courageous and were models for today's Christian woman. Isn't that how you want to be seen?
