Women are an essential element in church history. Just as Deborah, Esther, and the New Testament Marys helped shape Bible history, so the women of the Reformed church have helped to make its history great. In Reformation Women, Rebecca Vandoodewaard introduces readers to twelve sixteenth-century women who are not as well known today as contemporaries like Katie Luther and Lady Jane Grey. Providing an example to Christians today of strong service to Christ and His church, these influential, godly women were devoted to Reformation truth, in many cases provided support for their husbands, practiced hospitality, and stewarded their intellectual abilities. Their strength and bravery will inspire you, and your understanding of church history will become richer as you learn how God used them to further the Reformation through their work and influence.

The conclusion is excellent, too. A few favorite lines:
"A sensitivity to providential directives and a trust that can translate to new circumstances mark many in the cloud of witnesses. If, as Christian women, faith is THE identifying mark in our lives, then the shift of other roles and identities will not stop our fruitfulness; it will simply redirect it."
And:
"One of the ways we can tell that the love of godly husbands strengthened instead of coddled or oppressed these women is how they dealt with widowhood; a good marriage equipped them for fruitfulness despite grief." (
