Sarah Sentilles enters the lives of female ministers women of various ages and races, in a range of churches to paint the first real portrait of what it's like to serve as a woman of faith today. Sometimes triumphant, sometimes hilarious, sometimes painful, their stories take us from their calls to the pulpit through their ordinations and service in congregations. These women show us how the church can be more welcoming to the women who are its lifeblood. And in their inspiring determination to perform the ministry to which they are called, no matter what the obstacles, we might well see the future of the church itself.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKChristabella ‘Belle’ Brimble, has just started her freshman year of high school and has a lot on her plate. Between the constant nagging of her cheerleader best friend, Anna, to give a care about her reputation, and the frequent staring of her former friend, Walter, she feels like the walls are closing in on her from all corners. But what bothers her most, isn’t her best friend nagging or her former friend burning holes through her back … No. Her problems stem from her two-year-older big brother, Gabriel Elijah ‘Eli’ Brimble, seeking to avoid her for the better part of the past year. Eli has put-up these constant barriers between them, dictating what she can and can’t say and do around him, practically to the point of being ridiculous and she’s tried everything to have a sensible conversation with him about it, but every time she tries, he willfully shuts her out. After an explosive fight on the beach over her napping in his bed which ends in a lock being installed on his bedroom door, she decides she’s had enough of these childish games and makes it her mission to figure out what is going on with him so they can save the close-knit friendship they once regarded as children, before it’s, too, late. Trigger Warning: This work contains dark, heavy themes much like it's predecessors and some readers may find some of the content disturbing or otherwise uncomfortable. If you are easily triggered you may want to avoid this fictional work. Your mental health is very important, so please take care of yourself. (AKA: Don't be Belle and Eli.)
