Overview

It hasn't been easy for one of the first women ever to be ordained as a Baptist minister in the South. Jann Aldredge-Clanton almost lost her job as a professor at a Baptist university because she refused to sign a fundamentalist statement of beliefs. She was labeled a heretic for calling God She and Mother. Others said she couldn't be an ordained minister because it would be unbiblical. Called Waco's Give 'Em Hell Minister for her outspoken opinions and action on social issues, Aldredge-Clanton tells in Breaking Free how she discovered her mission of freeing people, including herself, from sexism and other injustices. A remarkable memoir that shows the liberating power of faith combined with feminism.
