Rewriting Eve: Claiming Women’s Sacred Stories as Our Own

It started with Eve-countless tellings that perpetuated shame instead of celebrating a woman’s desire, wisdom, and choice. In Rewriting Eve, Ronna Detrick boldly reimagines, redeems, even rewrites Eve’s story and nine more-removing doctrine and dogma, inviting us to hear their powerful voices, and calling women of today to claim the sacred lineage that has always been ours.

Ronna Detrick left the church and its dogma nearly twenty years ago but took the stories of women with her. She has combined her love of writing with a diverse and winding career that has included coaching, spiritual direction, professional development training, corporate leadership, and entrepreneurship. She shocked and delighted her audience in a provocative TEDx presentation on an Eve who inspires and empowers women instead of shaming and silencing them. She holds both a Master of Divinity degree and a Certificate in Spiritual Direction from The Seattle School of Theology and Psychology and a B.A. in Business and Communications from Whitworth University. After living most of her life in the Pacific Northwest, she is now just minutes from the Atlantic Ocean in Hampstead, NC, where she continues to write, drink strong coffee, have beautiful conversations with her clients, and cannot be dissuaded from the belief that her two daughters are the most amazing humans on the planet.
