Intrigued by the traditionalist resurgence that led many of her friends to abandon their careers to assume traditional gender roles in the home, Evans decides to try it for herself, vowing to take all of the Bible\u2019s instructions for women as literally as possible for a year. \u0026nbsp;See what happens when a thoroughly modern woman starts referring to her husband as \u201cmaster\u201d and \u201cpraises him at the city gate\u201d with a homemade sign. Learn the insights she receives from an ongoing correspondence with an Orthodox Jewish woman, and find out what she discovers from her exchanges with a polygamist wife. Join her as she wrestles with difficult passages of scripture that portray misogyny and violence against women. A Year of Biblical Womanhood is an exercise in scriptural exploration and spiritual contemplation. What does God truly expect of women, and is there really a prescription for biblical womanhood?\u201d\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp class=\u0022p1\u0022\u003EFollow a liberated woman as she lives out the Bible\u0027s instructions for women for a year and discuss their relevance today.\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Follow a liberated woman as she lives out the Bible\u0027s instructions for women for a year and discuss their relevance today."}],"uid":"27469","created_gmt":"2015-01-07 17:34:16","changed_gmt":"2017-04-13 21:20:45","author":"Kristen Bailey","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2015-01-15T19:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2015-01-15T20:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2015-01-15T20:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2015-01-16 00:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2015-01-16 01:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2015-01-16 01:00:00","rrule":"RRULE:FREQ=WEEKLY;INTERVAL=1;UNTIL=20150425T035959Z;WKST=SU\nEXDATE:20150319T000000","timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"1182","name":"General"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"70391","name":"Bible"},{"id":"44721","name":"christian"},{"id":"11656","name":"religious"},{"id":"61201","name":"wesley foundation"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"},{"id":"1791","name":"Student sponsored"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78751","name":"Undergraduate students"},{"id":"174045","name":"Graduate students"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp class=\u0022p1\u0022\u003EKristi Painter\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:kristi.painter@gtwf.org\u0022\u003E\u003Cspan class=\u0022s2\u0022\u003Ekristi.painter@gtwf.org\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
