Book Review: Restoring the Lost Kingdom: A Biblical-Theological Look at 1 Timothy 2 by Dénes House

Having studied theology and the Bible for many years, I need to be reminded (with some frequency) that the conclusions I reach through my study have real-world implications that affect people in real-world situations. This is the case when addressing the issue of women in leadership roles within the household, the church, and society. The conclusions may be valid and biblical, but that doesn’t mean that those conclusions won’t impact people and relationships. Therefore, when doing biblical and theological study, I need to be careful not only with how I study and what conclusions I come to but also need to be careful with how I deliver those conclusions.
