Teaser Tuesday ~ 5/11

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:

• Grab your current read.
• Open to a random page.
• Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page.
• BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
• Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

Here's mine:

When Matthew adds a few women to the cast, it is a major and notable exception. These women are so important to God that he had the writer break all cultural norms and even open himself to criticism and dismissal in order to make a point: "Look here – these are really good women." ~ Page 158 of Captivating by John & Stasi Eldredge
