In April of 2021, Beth Allison Barr released her book, The Making of Biblical Womanhood: How the Subjugation of Woman Became Gospel Truth.  The editorial review from the back of the book says, “Historian Beth Allison Barr shows that “biblical womanhood” isn’t biblical, but arose from a series of clearly definable historical moments. She presents a better way forward for the contemporary church.”

Ryan Cobb, Lead Pastor at Millersville Brethren In Christ, weighs in on this conversation with an honest review of Beth’s best-selling book. This review was originally posted by the Historical Society in August 2022.
