Have we forgotten part of God's story?
Throughout the Bible, God repeatedly called, equipped, and used women to accomplish His purposes. From Miriam and Deborah to Huldah and Esther... from Mary Magdalene and Priscilla to Phoebe and Junia... their stories reveal a consistent truth:
God has always called women.
Yet many of these stories have been overlooked, minimized, or forgotten.
In The Forgotten Fire, Pastor John E. Miller invites readers on a journey through Scripture to rediscover the remarkable women whom God raised up throughout redemptive history. Written from a biblical, theological, and Wesleyan-Holiness perspective, this book carefully examines the whole testimony of Scripture-from Genesis to Revelation-while honestly addressing the passages that have generated discussion for centuries.
Inside you'll discover:
• The biblical foundation for God's calling from Creation to the Early Church
• The lives and ministries of Miriam, Deborah, Huldah, Esther, Mary Magdalene, Priscilla, Phoebe, Junia, and many others
• The fulfillment of Joel's prophecy at Pentecost
• Careful studies of 1 Timothy 2, 1 Corinthians 14, Galatians 3:28, and Romans 16
• John Wesley's understanding of women in ministry
• The Church of the Nazarene's historic commitment to women's ordination
• Practical guidance for pastors, ministry students, churches, parents, and anyone seeking biblical answers
More than a theological study, The Forgotten Fire is an invitation to rediscover what God has been doing throughout history.
This is not a book about changing Scripture.
It is a book about returning to Scripture.
Whether you have wrestled with this subject for years or are studying it for the first time, this Nazkine360™ Signature Edition provides a thoughtful, Christ-centered, and thoroughly biblical resource for personal study, small groups, Sunday School classes, Bible colleges, and church leadership.
Because the question is not whether God has called women.
The Bible has already answered that.
The question is whether we are willing to remember the fire that has always been burning.
