Birthing the Sermon: Women Preachers on the Creative Process - Paperback
by Jana L. Childrers (Editor)
Exploring the metaphor of preaching as a mother conceiving and giving birth to faith, "Birthing the Sermon" addresses the historical and contemporary challenges faced by women preachers and aims to answer questions about their role in preaching.
