The Paradoxes of scripture reveal a God bent on relationship – One of the most frustrating thing about the God of the Bible is that God refuses to fit neatly into a system. God doesn’t seem to care if you have God nailed down.(if and when you read it post YOUR takeaways in the comments section below!) If anything this book proved to me that I am, indeed, a feminist, and if I am supposed to fit into one kind of feminism or another I suppose I am a Jesus Feminist. In this book Sarah recounts a bit of her own story as her love for Jesus helped shape and transform her into a Feminist seeking to love like Jesus. This is one of the reasons I really liked the title of the new book Jesus Feminist by Sarah Bessey, which I read through this week. However, I firmly believe that there is not one feminism but that each feminist is able to bring their own tradition and convictions into the conversation.
