Called According to the Scripture

Good book and Biblically Sound. Ignore the negative comment "A Theology and Psych" student says it all. Furthermore the negative comments made by the reviewer are filled with all types of cultural propaganda that can be traced to the enemy of our souls. For some it would be novel to define Biblical Doctrine by the clear implications of the Bible. Faulty Complexity in regard to certain biblical issues can divert the conscious and create an unecessary intellectual controversy which is usually the result of one seeking his or her own will that has been volitionally set in oppostion to the clear content of the scriptures.

Insightful and fresh book on a tough topic

I found this book to be a fresh, insightful exploration of what the Bible actually teaches about women and ministry. Doriani does a good job of approaching the texts honestly and thoughtfully and with an open mind, earnestly seeking what the text says and means without a lot of bias from the preconceptions of one "camp" or another. It was wonderful to read a thoughtful, informed book about women in ministry that felt so un-biased and honest.
