From a Woman's Heart: A Feminine Perspective of God

By Peggy Boyd

Splintered into over 22,000 sects and churches, Christianity presents a puzzling paradox to the world. With an ever-increasing number of Christians dabbling in Eastern traditions, and an unsettledness of spirit that has uprooted thousands from their traditional religious beliefs, defining what it means to be a Christian is becoming more difficult. What is this wind that is blowing through the church? Is it good, or is the church falling apart? Based on the premise that the Christian church has existed for centuries with an unbalanced male-dominant view of God, From a Woman's Heart challenges the church to see what the heart of a woman sees-the long-forgotten feminine side of God. Sharing insights from her personal spiritual journey, Boyd challenges the church to examine such issues as: What is salvation? Does God really burn people in hellfire? What is God's justice? Is church organization God's design or man's invention? Boyd then shares what she found when old concepts were broken down and new understanding was born. Whether you embrace its contents as a breath of fresh air or simply let the thoughts simmer on the back burner for awhile, From a Woman's Heart will cause you to reflect deeply on what you believe and what the purpose of the church really is.
