Theology of the Womb

Knowing God Through the Body of a Woman

By: Christy Angelle Bauman

Narrated by: Tiana Hanson

Length: 6 hrs and 4 mins

Publisher's summary

If it is true that God is a male, then his divinity or deity is expressed in his masculinity. Yet, I am a woman, and there are parts of my body, such as my breasts, vagina, and womb that are telling a story about God that I have never learned or understood.

This is an exploration of the significance of a womb that must shed and bleed before it can create. How will we engage our body which cyclically bleeds most of our life and can build and birth a human soul? How will we honor the living womb that lives and, sometimes, dies within us?

This is a book about the theology found in the cycle of the womb, which births both life and death. Every day, each one of us is invited to create, and every day, we make a decision knowing that from our creation can come death or life.

Women's voices have been silenced for a long time as society and the church has quieted their bodies.

Will we courageously choose to listen to the sound of your voice, the song of your womb, and speak for the world to hear?

Very Powerful Book

I loved the story telling, spiritual parallels, and vulnerability of Bauman’s book. It inspired me to look inside myself for my own womb’s story and value my woman’s soul and body. I learned so much about the biology and spiritual analogy of the womb. My mother is the greatest line of my spiritual heritage, but mothers are often not talked about in church. I am thankful Bauman wrote this book that points out how God is like a mother, and mothers are made in his image.

The MOST beautiful book

I barely have words for how stunning + beautiful this book is!

I cried throughout while listening to it, as it touched somewhere deep within!

I thank Christy for sharing her story, she has inspired me to do the same!

I have never felt so honored to be a woman! This book is truly a gift for all womankind! Every human should read this!!!

Thank you!

Wonderfully Holy

The work done here by Christy was one of the most beautiful books I’ve read. Her approach to the sacredness of the womb was healing and holy to receive as a reader. Her words were balm to my soul as I move through my journey of learning what it means to be made in the Imago Dei.

This book has surely changed me

This book has surely changed the way I experience God and myself in my femininity.
Thank you!

everyone needs to read this.

your heart will be made raw and then healed through both this book and allowing Jesus to enter the places it opens up.

Misleading Title

If you’re looking for a serious book about theology and the vagina/womb/menstruation and the unique ability women have to see God through these experiences. This is not the book for you. If you want a serious view of theology and new exciting God theory and to learn about the way through life creation that we can better understand the Being of God—this is not for you.

This book is a very elementary text. I’d suggest it for Sunday school moms as a tool to talk to their daughters about female empowerment during their first period—but that’s really where the depth of this book ends.

Told me what I’ve always known

A bunch of rambling on about her life not enough instructions to implement any rituals or even perspectives on awakening you divine power idk left me confused.

Does not follow Reformed theology

The reading voice is clear. However, if you are a reformed Christian who believes in the Bible, you will likely not agree with this book. It highlights traits of the charasmatic movement and modern feminism over Biblical principles.
