What is a woman's role in the church? Can a woman have a place in the church? Is a woman to sit quietly while the Lord's work is being performed by the men? These works by Carroll Osburn and others are some of the best written, well researched essays on women in the Bible and the early church you will find anywhere. Essays include women from the Old and New Testament as well as women in the early stages of the development of the current church as we know it. See what role these early women played in the progress of God's inspired institution.
