In Gifted, Debbie Duncan presents a refreshingly new perspective on how all church leaders can be better at what they do when they listen to the voices of both men and women who lead. Rooted in Christian tradition, theology, and theory, Debbie Duncan helps us to understand how present-day practices came into being. Testimonials by several women church leaders from a variety of theological backgrounds reflect - in practical terms - what is said in each chapter.
