A Christian feminist human rights lawyer exposes global and domestic gender-based oppression, calling the Church to confront suffering it too often ignores.

Drawing on decades of work across Africa and the United States, McKinney Timm reveals how child marriage, lethal violence, rape, and the mistreatment of widows devastate communities. Through survivor stories, she shows how these harms transcend borders-and how Americans overlook similar injustices at home. Her critique of white saviorism underscores the need for an honest reckoning with how church and state perpetuate gendered and racialized violence.

Rooted in biblical insight and Christian ethical reasoning, the book argues that securing women's human rights is the most faithful way to advance scriptural commitments to safety, inclusion, provision, and equity. McKinney Timm highlights how American democracy and dominant church institutions have failed this mandate, pointing to prophetic voices past and present who illuminate a more just path.
