content: We ordered this latest book in the Sisters Bible study series in anticipation of the same quality of previous excellent studies in this same series. However, we were definitely disappointed and chagrined to discover that the social priniciples of the UMC (United Methodist Church)are not upheld in this volume, most notably those prinicples concerning marriage and sexual relations. We decided to return the books to the publisher and find another study. We will be especially careful in considering any new offerings in this series.
