Break Free from the Lies That Have Kept You Bound
For years, you may have believed that God speaks to women only through men, that "children obey your parents" means lifelong submission, or that questioning church authority is rebellion against God Himself.
These widely-taught doctrines have kept believers trapped in fear, guilt, and silence.
But these teachings aren't biblical.
In Untwisting Scriptures that were used to tie you up, gag you, and tangle your mind: Book 2 Patriarchy and Authority, biblical scholar and abuse advocate Rebecca Davis tackles the false doctrines at the heart of patriarchal and authoritarian church systems. Through meticulous examination of Greek words, historical context, and full Scripture passages, she exposes how these teachings replace Jesus Christ with human control ... and what the Bible really says.
What You'll Discover
Women and adult children CAN seek God directly - Break free from the lie that you need a father, husband, or pastor as an intermediary between you and Jesus Christ.
What "Children obey your parents" actually means - Learn why this command doesn't apply to adult life decisions or abusive situations, and when God calls you to stand firm.
The truth about the "umbrella of authority" teaching - See why this popular Bill Gothard doctrine is completely unbiblical and how stepping out from false "protective coverings" leads to experiencing God's grace directly.
What Hebrews 13:17 really says about church authority - Understand how this verse has been twisted and what biblical church leadership actually looks like.
You can leave patriarchy WITHOUT leaving Jesus - Discover the path to genuine faith free from man-made bondage while still following Christ.

What Readers Are Saying
"The book is clear, cogent, concise, interesting, intelligent, and logical. I highly recommend it, especially if you are seeking answers to the bad and oppressive teaching in Evangelicalism." - Donald T. Owsley, Author of Cultivating Kids, Enriching Parents
"This book was like cold water in a blazing hot desert!" - Chrissy
"Wow, I am blown away! I wish I'd had this book a decade ago." - artnmusic
"This book helped me to see that ultimately, I do not answer to any man, but to Jesus Christ alone. His Spirit lives in me, and I can trust Him to guide me. I am loved, I am cherished, I am His." - Julie
"I felt liberated, and I loved God more after I read both of Davis' books. It cleared up a lot of misunderstandings and strengthened and restored my trust in the goodness of God's word." - knavie
"Rebecca invites the reader out of blindly accepting everything they're told into maturity and spiritual adulthood. One can hear from the Holy Spirit individually - it doesn't have to be through a pastor or mentor." - Caroline
Scriptures can be untwisted. You can move from bondage under human authority to freedom in direct relationship with Jesus Christ.
