Women and the Armor of God

The word armor brings to mind visions of knights, gladiators, soldiers - solid men girded for war, wearing their protection on the outside as a defense against harm. Patsy R. Mosley envisions the "armor of God" - more specifically, however: armor worn on the inside consisting of seven key elements: truth, righteousness, peace, faith, salvation, the Word of God, and prayer. As she sees it, "We must have on the whole armor of God it we want to be protected and accomplish what God has commanded us to do and to win this war."Women and the Armor of God explores the concept of the "inward woman" dressed for spiritual warfare in the modern world. Brimming with examples from biblical stories and citing specific Bible passages, Mosley's book provides an enlightening examination of the many ways we as humans can be "under attack" from negative forces in life - and how faith and trust in Jesus Christ can be our current and ultimate salvation.
