Join authors Cait West and Sarah Stankorb for a discussion about the impact of Christian patriarchy, a school of thought that teaches women's submission to their father, then husband, and is practiced in some high-control churches. By sharing their personal stories, as well as stories of other women in the church, Cait and Sarah voice the possibility of exposing wrongdoing, changing the narrative, breaking free from unrealistic expectations, and building a better future.
This event is free to attend, however, it helps us in planning to receive your RSVP. Please register here so we know you plan to join us: RSVP.
The authors’ books will be available for purchase and signing at the event.
