Hey Amy,

I'm always interested in a good read full of humor and grace, and a compatriot in egalitarian theology sounds a-okay to me! Thank you for this review. I'll probably get two copies of this book--one for me and one for my editor, Donna K. Wallace. We talk all the time about this. Have you ever read Sue Monk Kidd's "Dance of the Dissident Daughter"? The front half is fantastic. She talks about women in the church tapping out their full potential for the kingdom of God by rearranging cookies on a plate, God love her heart. 

My book is not about egalitarian theology per se, but I do have a chapter where I touch on the role of women in the church called, "Pastor Honey, I Would Have Poisoned Your Banana Bread a Long Time Ago and Other Confessions from the First Church of the Bermuda Triangle". My book is called, "Juxtaposed: Finding Sanctuary on the Outside". (I'm a big one for titles...) It's a comedic, spiritual memoir, which chronicles this girl's journey in a crazy, Vegas-show-business family while  trying to navigate my way out of an ultra-conservative, religified, abusive home. I hope I'm not being presumptuous, but I would love to send it to you as a gift. You can let me know through my website: www.daisyrainmartin.com. I'm not offended either way! I just loved your post and thought I'd make a connection. I hope to submit my first article to Provoketive very soon!

Have a wonderful holiday!
