A strong Christian woman embarks on a radical life experiment-a year of biblical womanhood. Strong and committed in her faith-but frustrated by the inconsistencies she saw in her evangelical culture\'s view of women-Rachel Held Evans became an independent woman. But, intrigued by the traditionalist resurgence that led many of her friends to abandon their careers to assume traditional gender roles in the home, Evans had a crazy idea:What if I took \iblical womanhood\ literally for a full year? In the next twelve months Rachel: Wore a scarf over her head to prayCalled her husband \master\ and stood on the roadside with a sign that said \Dan is Awesome\Adopted a computerized babyPerched on the roof for an afternoon of penance for gossipingCamped out in her front yard during her periodVisited an Amish schoolhouse, a pig farm in Bolivia, and a Benedictine monasteryTook up baking and knittingInterviewed a polygamist, a Quiverfull daughter, and a courtship coupleWith just the right mixture of humor and insight, Evans takes readers along with her on a lively adventure. In the process she discovers that the journey itself leads her right to the heart of God.
