This book will challenge you to think about relationships between men and women in a whole new way.

Shaw Books, 2001
Becoming Women of Purpose
Ruth Barton's study is an excellent resource for Christian women of all ages and stages.

Sacred Rhythms: Arranging Our Lives for Spiritual Transformation5 reviews
Ruth Haley Barton
InterVarsity Press, 2006

That's why it came as a delightful surprise when (a) I couldn't put this book down, (b) I read several chapters again and again and used them to spur journal/prayer entries, and (c) I'm going to take it with me on my next overnight silent retreat. I especially ...

The Truths That Free Us: A Woman's Calling to Spiritual Transformation 2 reviews
Ruth Haley Barton
Shaw Books, 2002
this book was desparately needed and i'm so glad that she wrote it!
I loved this book so much that after I read a borrowed copy, I decided to buy my own. I meet with a group of female graduate students and we were all feeling frustrated by the constraints that we felt were being put upon our spiritual callings in the church and in the larger world. Fortunately, one of the women had read this book and lent it to me. Ruth Haley Barton does a great job of staying ...
