Notes:	Revision of the author's thesis (Ph. D.)--Regent University, 2010 under title: "God forgive us for being women" : the rhetorical negotiation and renegotiation of the role of women in the Assemblies of God. Includes bibliographical references (leaves 219-225).
Summary:	"The role of women in church leadership is controversial; however, the Pentecostal tradition, and specifically the Assemblies of God, has held that women can serve at all levels of church leadership. There is no role that is off-limits to women. Citing their distinctive approach to theology, Pentecostals embrace women's leadership in policy, but in practice, women are often frustrated by the lack of opportunity and representation in leadership roles. By exploring the rhetorical history, how Pentecostals talk about the role of women, the purpose of this book is to expose those rhetorical constraints that create dissonance and discontentment. This book explores how Pentecostals use and are used by language that shapes this dissonance and how that impacts the lived reality of both men and women in the Pentecostal tradition."--Publisher.
