Christians often feel they are faced with a choice: “Either I compromise my commitment to biblical authority, or I embrace male authority over women, as the Bible teaches.” Such a dilemma tends to prod Christians, often reluctantly, down one of two paths. One path involves relegating the Bible’s teaching to an antiquated past. Certain passages are labeled artifacts of a “patriarchal” culture and deemed irrelevant for today. The other path involves a doubling-down, in which Christians commit themselves to the Bible’s perceived teaching about male authority, and thereby set themselves over against a full commitment to equality. Untie the Cords of Silence shows through careful readings of relevant biblical passages that Christians need not go down either of these paths. It is possible to hold to both biblical authority and the full equality of men and women. In fact, doing so is the most logically coherent way of applying the Bible’s message to the Christian life. This book does not merely provide a way to tolerate the “problem” texts. Instead, it restores these texts to their rightful place as coherent, integrated parts of the Bible’s message of salvation and freedom in Christ.

Set in the 18th-century kingdom of Alteria, Path of Injustice is a story of romantic love tormented by jealousy and personal suffering, which takes place against the background of a country locked in civil war. Daintry is a young woman in love with her childhood sweetheart. When she obtains a herbal potion to cure her sick father, she unwittingly sparks off a chain of events that threaten to change her life forever. Accused of witchcraft and thrown into a ghastly prison, she is aware that her innocent act of compassion can have only one ending – death by hanging or burning. When her sentence of death is lifted, her relief is short-lived: she is sent as a prisoner to work in the dreaded silver mines of Katangar, from where no one returns. Will she ever see her betrothed or her family again? Can she hope for a miracle to save her? Path of Injustice is a charming historical romance set in the 18th century, against the backdrop of civil war.
