About this ebook
A FEMINIZED GOSPEL
For God so loved the world, that she gave her one and only Daughter, that whoever believes in her should not perish, but have eternal life. For God did not send her Daughter into the world to judge the world, but rather that the world should be saved through her.
What if God Incarnate Were a Woman? Is God “gendered” in any meaningful way as we conceive of gender? Could our nearly complete masculinization of God be the equivalent of a “false idol”? Experience and explore the icons of God in our minds through this simple, feminized version of the Gospels, and challenge yourself to question the human constraints on our imagining of the unimaginable.
“God created woman in Her own image. In God’s image She created her; female and male She created them. ―Genesis 1:2
About the author
Erec Stebbins is a biomedical researcher who writes novels in a variety of genres, focusing on thrillers and science fiction. His work has consistently been praised for its action and thrills alongside a deeper, often philosophical angle. The Internet Review of Books dubbed him "master of the thinking reader's techno thriller".
His novels have been called "unique" and "pulse-pounding" (The Ragnarök Conspiracy), "altogether profound, reminiscent of Bradbury and Dan Simmons’ Hyperion“ (Daughter Of Time Trilogy), and "startlingly dark" (Extraordinary Retribution) with five star ratings in Foreword Reviews, San Francisco Book Reviews, Portland Book Review, and others. His Daughter of Time trilogy is a Foreword Reviews' 2015 INDIEFAB Book of the Year Award Finalist.
Born in the Midwest, his mother worked as a clinical psychologist and his father was a professor of Romance languages at the University of Nebraska in Lincoln. His father's specialty, old Romance languages and their literature, is the source of the strange spelling of his middle name: "Erec." It is an Old French spelling, taken from an Arthurian romance by Chrétien de Troyes written around 1170: Érec et Énide.
Erec has pursued diverse interests over the course of his life, including science, music, drama, and writing. His academic path focused on science, and he received a degree in physics from Oberlin College in 1992 and a PhD in biochemistry from the Weill Cornell Graduate School of Medical Sciences in 1999. He has worked for several decades studying the atomic structure of biological macromolecules involved in disease.
