In Warrior of Eden , Beth Guckenberger revisits God's original design in Genesis 2, emboldening women to use their gifts as full participants in the church, at work, and at home. This biblically-based book includes discussion questions, journal prompts, and spiritually rich insights for women and men ready to live out their unique callings alongside each other as they contribute to God's kingdom. What was God's original intention for women and men as they live and lead together? In Warrior of Eden , Beth Guckenberger takes us back to Genesis and God's description of woman as ezer , or "helper." In this context, "helper" didn't mean "assistant" but referred to someone who saves the day in battle: a warrior . Drawing on biblical truth, careful research, and fresh insights, Beth describes how women have always had a valuable place in God's kingdom alongside men. Warrior of Eden explores 27 thought- provoking questions such as: How did the early church treat women after Jesus turned everything upside down? Are we made in the image of a male God? When have I joined men in battle and when have I picked one instead? Why is the church lagging in this conversation instead of leading? What if warrioring just isn't me? With reflection questions and journal prompts, Warrior of Eden reminds us that God directly empowers women to do His work--not because one gender is superior, but because we're each worthy of His call.
