Pioneering Women’s Education: Dorothea Beale, An Unlikely Reformer
by Sally Ann WallerAlthough much less well known than some other nineteenth century female campaigners, such as Florence Nightingale or Emmeline Pankhurst, Dorothea Beale is nonetheless deserving of wide recognition for her pioneering, and at times radical, ideas. Dorothea's work for the education of girls made just as significant an impact on the liberation of women as did that of Florence Nightingale in ennobling the nursing profession or Emmeline Pankhurst in drawing attention to women's political inferiority. Although very much a woman of her times, through her work as Principal of the Cheltenham Ladies' College, her writings, her speeches and her widespread involvement in societies promoting women's interests, Dorothea helped to show what women were capable of, providing them with greater confidence and self-belief. Drawing on a wide range of original sources, this book traces Dorothea's life and work. It considers the formative influences of her youth, her response to the disappointments of her early career and examines how her own educational ideas evolved, were put into practice and came to influence schools and colleges both at home and abroad. As well as an in-depth analysis of her pioneering work in Cheltenham, her many other interests, connections and involvements, including her contribution to the suffrage campaign are also explored. However this book is not just a story of one woman's achievements, great though they were. There is an attempt to understand Dorothea as a person with reflections on her character and personal life throughout and the book ends with an appraisal of the many contradictions to be found in this intriguing 'conservative reformer'. Dorothea Beale was a woman whose quiet and unassuming manner hid a strong sense of vocation, a fierce determination and an undoubted practical ability to achieve her ends. Dorothea would have been amazed at the changes that occurred in the position of women in the century after her death in 1906, and yet it was in no small measure thanks to her work that this breakthrough in female opportunities occurred.

The Piper: The Epic Betrayal of Biblical Consequence
by Dennis BankThe founder of My Strong Tower Ministries unveils 24 Biblical truths that have been distorted in order to hide God&’s authentic purpose for you. Betrayal is a violation of trust that causes damage far beyond the event itself. The betrayed lose what is most important to them. The Piper—Satan—knows, better than most of us, which deviations he needs to fabricate to get us off the course to our eternal destiny. He corrupts the written Word with eloquence so that its readers can bring a curse upon themselves simply by reading or hearing it. The Piper knew how to twist what God said to entice Adam and Eve into rebellion—thus dooming them and future generations to captivity and destruction. Likewise, we have only one commandment that we must get right—but the Piper has perpetrated an epic betrayal, unwittingly promoted through our own teachers various Bible translations. Indeed the shepherds fiddle while the people are perishing. Cult experts have warned of serious doctrinal errors and changes that abound in the holy books of factions like the Jehovah Witnesses. Now see for yourself how the same apocryphal beliefs that abound in the fictitious works of cults also abound in the very modern Bible translations mainstream Christianity recklessly trusts.
