BWIM's 2025 Book Picks

We’re thrilled to announce the first-ever BWIM’s Book Picks of the Year—a curated collection of reads from the BWIM staff that inspire, challenge, and nurture women in ministry, as well as equip and motivate all those who advocate for gender equality among Baptists.

Leadership Roundtable

The Leadership Roundtable Series is your essential, honest conversation resource designed to help congregational leaders and ministers navigate the most sensitive issues facing women in ministry today. We know that addressing subtle resistance, pay disparity, and power dynamics can feel impossible in a local context. This resource makes it manageable.

Congregational Resources

Find practical policy examples and tools designed to assist congregations as they craft and refine personnel practices, including parental leave and other staff support resources. These materials give churches a starting place for conversations that honor and sustain healthy ministry. 

Find helpful liturgies, sample orders of worship, prayers, and other planning tools for ordination and installation services, collected to assist congregations in preparing thoughtful and affirming celebrations of ministry. Whether crafting a service or seeking creative liturgical elements, these resources provide inspiration and structure. 

Led by Rev. Mari Wiles, Seek Discomfort is a BWIM devotional resource that invites individuals and communities into honest reflection, prayer, and faithful engagement with justice. Though created for Lent, it remains a meaningful resource for ongoing personal and communal spiritual practice.
