Even in today's world, there is still a suggestion that women can be restricted by the cultural expectations of their sex's behaviour. More specifically, women may be more likely to turn away from God's call and hold back for the sake of cultural norms.

Danielle Strickland maintains that it is the church who should assume lead and challenge this social norm. The church is the one with witnesses of the holy spirit- the holy spirit who has repeatedly demonstrated his desire for women to fulfill their potential.

Strickland splits the book into several sections including the situation as it is today (exploitation vs subjugation), the historical situation (feminism and the Christian tradition), material from the bible, and the future situation and what the church should take responsibility for.
