About this listen

 The purpose of Eve, A Serpent, and a Woman’s Place is to extend the exploration of the relationship between Christianity and psychology beyond the first volume in the series titled Apes, Adam, and an Ark, which reviewed various Christian and psychological perspectives on God’s creation of the cosmos, the creation or evolution of life, and God’s widespread destruction of life in the massive flood only a few chapters into the Bible.

This volume begins with the story of Eve and her encounter with a talking snake, which provides a foundation for the way ancient men and contemporary Christians view the relationship between women and men as well as appropriate roles for women in Christian ministry. For thousands of years men have viewed women as wives, mothers, and helpers rather than leaders, pastors, supervisors, teachers, warriors, or professionals. Soon after Eve, divine laws would govern the lives of ancient women and their relationships to God and men. Many stories offer glimpses into the biblical worldview of women that would provide a framework for the Christian era.

My purpose in writing this book is to examine the similarities and differences among those components of Christian worldviews that indicate such a limited role for the daughters of Eve. I conclude by considering which Christian perspectives hold the potential for relating well with the worldviews of societies that have drawn upon evidence-based discoveries, including those from psychology, to embrace women as equals, respect them as leaders, and welcome them to places previously set aside for men.
