Reviews

I find Faithful Deliberation timely, and the angles the author takes on the subjects therein unique and compelling. The author effectively analyzes the rhetorics of women figures like Denhollander and Moore, making clear their rhetorical significance. --Jessica Enoch, author of Domestic Occupations: Spatial Rhetorics and Women's Work I find Geiger's argument fresh, important, and compelling. There is, to my knowledge, no other work out there that does what the author is doing--analyzing evangelical women's rhetoric on their own terms. Really, it's a phenomenal work. --Jeff Ringer, author of Vernacular Christian Rhetoric and Civil Discourse: The Religious Creativity of Evangelical Student Writers
