Discipling women is vital in every church. But it’s all very well knowing the theory — how do you actually get on and do it in practice?

Unconventional is an honest look at beginning and sustaining a vibrant women’s ministry that works. Author Sharon Dickens shares how she started a women’s ministry from scratch — with all the frustrations and joys along the way — enabling you to learn from her mistakes and benefit from her extensive experience.

"Sharon Dickens has used her wealth of experience and wisdom to write a well-needed book in the realm of Women's Ministry. There is an abundance of books which have explored the biblical principles behind complementarianism. However, finding books which help churches think through and implement healthy discipleship amongst their women are few and far between. Unconventional fills that gap. As well as being an invaluable resource for those beginning to think about Women's Ministry, Unconventional is an excellent tool for a well-established ministry that would benefit from a review. I would have loved a book like this when I started out in ministry and am excited to use some of the principles in my current role."

An Invaluable Resource

Rachel Sloan, FIEC

Finding books which help churches think through and implement healthy discipleship amongst their women are few and far between. Unconventional fills that gap as Sharon Dickens uses her wealth of experience and wisdom to write a much–needed book for the realm of women’s ministry. Through sharing the highs and lows of her time at Niddrie Community Church in Edinburgh, Sharon lays out a plan that others can follow to see ministry amongst women flourish in their churches. I found it especially helpful how Sharon highlighted the need to know the gifts of the women in your church to ensure they are all being given an opportunity to use what God has given them in the best way. We often fall into the trap of using those who do everything. Unconventional challenged me to be careful not to overlook less obvious women. We want to be looking for ways to help women test their gifts and enable others to step out of their comfort zone. As well as being an invaluable resource for those beginning to think about women’s ministry, Unconventional is an excellent tool for a well–established ministry that would benefit from a review. I would have loved a book like this when I started out in ministry and I am excited to use some of the principles in my current role.
