If you had the privilege of catching PBS’ Independent Lens special, “Half the Sky,” based on the book by the same name authored by Nicholas Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn, you will want to know that the Kindle edition of Carolyn Custis James’ amazing book, Half the Church, is on sale this week for $1.99!
In Half the Church, James argues that the Church’s emphasis on marriage and motherhood is not far-reaching enough to encompass every woman’s whole life within a multicultural, rapidly changing world. In order to take on the sort of injustices we encounter in Half the Sky, Christian women must be freed to lead and to capitalize on God’s positive, life-affirming vision for them. I named it as one of my favorite books on justice here.
Just thought I'd let you know!
