  • What if some of the Bible passages most often used to limit women have been misunderstood all along?

    In On Purpose, Julie Coleman takes readers on a thoughtful, Scripture-centered journey through the key verses that have shaped the church’s teaching on women’s roles in the home, workplace, and ministry. With careful historical context, clear biblical analysis, and deep respect for God’s Word, she uncovers a compelling vision of men and women serving side by side for the kingdom of God.

    Written with grace rather than controversy, On Purpose challenges long-held assumptions while inviting readers to rediscover the freedom, calling, and purpose God intended for women from the beginning. This is more than a study about women’s roles—it is a fresh invitation for the church to fully embrace the gifts God has given His people.

Books by Joanne Hagemyer

  • What does biblical womanhood really look like? Not stereotypes, but Scripture.

    In Broken, Searching, Trusted, Powerful, Joanne Hagemyer explores 32 women of the Bible through vivid historical insight and guided discussion questions. Each story reveals courage, faith, and purpose in unexpected places.

  • Bring your family and friends into a meaningful, all-ages celebration of Scripture and shared joy.

    Love Feast is a guided, family-friendly Passover Seder that connects the ancient story of the Exodus with Jesus’ Last Supper and the early church “Love Feasts” described in Acts. Blending tradition with worship, it helps you experience the story of redemption around your own table.

    Based on nearly thirty years of study and practice, this Haggadah provides everything you need—service order, songs, menu, materials, and speaking parts—making it simple to host in about an hour and a half.

    Perfect for churches, small groups, or families, Love Feast invites you to rediscover the meaning of Passover and celebrate the unity of God’s story through generations.

  • What does it look like when God calls and empowers women to step into His story?

    In Her Story, Joanne Hagemyer brings the women of the Bible to life through compelling storytelling and thoughtful reflection. From courageous faith to missed opportunities, these accounts reveal women who encountered God’s call—and the ways they responded.

    Each episode highlights God’s work through women in Scripture and invites listeners to see their significance with fresh eyes. More than a retelling of ancient stories, Her Story challenges us to recognize, value, and support women in every area of ministry and spiritual leadership today.
