Synopsis
This book is women joining together to speak and act in new ways in response to the increasing challenges of our day. This book offers to all women the sustenance needed to face blatant racism, bigotry, sexism, heterosexism, and xenophobia in the world and in the church. The writers of Speaking Truth greet these challenges knowing that the Good News of Jesus Christ is bigger than any societal ill and that God has called us to play a part in God's work of transformation.
When we pray together and act together, we claim a new vision for how things can be—a vision God gives us through Scripture. We can support both ourselves and other women as we learn to find and claim our voices and end the silences imposed upon us. Speaking Truth provides inspirational writings by women for women to face the societal challenges specific to today; includes prayers, devotions, scriptures, and inspirational quotes for special challenges; and encourages women supporting, advocating, and praying for other women.
