A research-based model for developing female leaders in church and ministry. Addressing the unique challenges women face, Morgan outlines seven key areas essential for growth. This accessible resource includes strategies, policy suggestions, and discussion questions, making it ideal for churches, leadership courses, and anyone committed to supporting women’s leadership in ministry.
Though academic, this resource is both insightfully engaging and eagerly practical. The author is so thorough that I continuously found myself assessing where I’m at in my leadership development and excited—gasp—about how I can improve! It also helped me feel reassured that it’s okay I don’t know exactly how all my leadership areas will converge in the future- I’m still in the emerging leader phase (2-3) figuring that out :) Because there seems to be such a straightforward path for men in ministry to gain influence and growth, I didn’t know how vital it was for me to understand that women’s leadership journeys should be different and unique. Who would have thought social media is actually a key indicator of women’s pastoral leadership influence? That certainly isn’t the case for most men. And this is just one of the reasons I loved Anna Morgan’s holistic approach to championing female pastors. It’s inspiring to have this roadmap for guidance.
