Canada's Main Christian Magazine Offers Thoughts on The Pentecostal Gender Paradox

The latest issue of Faith Today (Jan/Feb 2025) chose The Pentecostal Gender Paradox as one of its four featured book reviews in both its print and online editions.


You can read the extended review by Duane Henry online, and a shortened review in the print magazine below. But here's a few highlights:


A “thoroughly researched” and “meticulous examination” of women in ministry that “expands the importance of women’s roles to a theological importance that many readers may not have considered deeply”

 * * * * *

Dutko’s eschatological argument “should make anyone who wishes to apply intellect and scholarship to his point raise their awareness to the depth of his claims”

  * * * * *

A “valuable resource” that offers solutions for change that are “accessible to all”

* * * * *


Reminder that the paperback is now available for pre-order for as low as $25 USD / $35 CAD for website readers if you pre-order here and use code GLR AQ4 (with space). Buy one for a friend and help get the message out to Let Women Lead!
