Overview

The traditional story of the birth of Christianity is dominated by men. Only men could be priests, and only men were close disciples of Jesus. But now Bible experts Helen Bond and Joan Taylor lay out a striking alternative version of events, with women central to the origins of Christianity. But why has this pivotal role played by women disappeared from history? In a journey that takes them to ancient caves in Israel and catacombs in Italy, Helen and Joan question centuries of Christian thought. Were female disciples crucial to Jesus' mission, preaching, healing, baptising and even financing the movement? Helen and Joan believe that what they've found will mean that millions of Christians will have to rethink the origins of their faith.
