All it took was one. One black swan changed people's minds forever.
The Black Swan Effect presents a vision for what can happen as men
and women work together in the Kingdom of God. The authors (both
male and female) encourage men to champion women as equal
co-laborers and partners in the harvest. They give women permission
and inspiration to follow the Lord-to reach their own full
potential and encourage others to fulfill God's call. The Black
Swan Effect equips both men and women to bring an informed and
positive contribution to the increasingly crucial conversation on
gender in the church.
If you are like most Christians, one of three primary motivations
propels you into this discussion about women in ministry:
Many Christians have come to the conclusion that there is no
better way to increase the size of God's missions workforce than to
fully deploy women to use their spiritual gifts and God-given
capacities.
Some are asking theological questions. They are investigating how
the Bible portrays women, especially women leaders. How did Jesus
treat women? Were the New Testament writers-in particular, the
apostle Paul-misogynists? Are there alternative interpretations for
some of the really difficult passages of Scripture?
Others are drawn to this discussion because of issues related to
justice and human dignity around the world as well as in the
church. As they study Scripture, they are assured that God creates
all men and women in his image, and they can't even imagine a God
who would discriminate against women.
Fourteen different authors contribute to these themes, each writing
from their own area of passion and expertise, the whole being woven
together into a single narrative. Encouraging stories of women who
are doing marvelous things for God today accompany each chapter.
Change is coming Let's get ready.
