This book is an important guide for seminary students preparing for ministry and pastors who want to reach the entire congregation. Drawingon her many years of speaking to women, men, and preachers, Alice Mathews explores both themyths and the realities of women as listeners. She considers the ways women think about themselves, make ethical decisions, handle stress, learn, and view leadership and power andapplies the results to the task of preaching. Mathews urges preachers to be mindful oflanguage and advocates the use of anecdotesthat do not ignore women or merely typecast women in narrowly defined roles.
