As Merelyn Webber was growing up, she could see the barriers women faced if they wanted to undertake any leadership roles at her church. She has failed to see any progress in female patriarchy. Webber aims to present valid points in her new publishing debut.

Titled, Head of the House: Is it a Sin for Women to Lead?”, Webber designed the book as a well-researched and inspiring read. She addressed it to women and for women critiquing theological and social patriarchy. Webber structured the book to help women understand for themselves what God and his word have to say about what he intends their roles in society to be.

She contends that the issue of equal opportunity for women and men to rule needs to be examined soberly by all and not left to the experts to decide.

“Triune God is not hierarchical, therefore humankind—made in his image, should not be hierarchical either,” Webber said.

The focus of this book is for Webber to address the very question that is her book title. In order to address this question thoroughly, she uses examples of exemplary women, and the hardships women endure gender reconciliation and revisiting God’s original intention in Eden. Her approach is personal and inquisitive.

“My desire is to share what I have learned with others who also might be struggling,” Webber said.
