I dedicate this book to my parents, John and Anna Warrick, who got me through the rough times in my life. They have been a big inspiration to me and my poetry. I wanted the world to know since my parents passed on what kind people they were. I was brought up in a Christian home, and went to Critfield Missionary Alliance Church in Millrun, Pennsylvania. My parents were very strong in their belief. My dad also served in World War II. We lived in a small community in Normalville, Pennsylvania, where everyone knew everyone. They meant the world to me, and no one can take their place. I just wanted to keep their memory alive. I hope everyone enjoys my book.

From the BeginningIn the beginning, God created humanity -- male and female -- in his image and commissioned them as co-rulers over the earth (Genesis 1:27-28). That oneness was shattered in the Fall. Under the curse, might became right, the strong subjugating the weak while the female half of God''s image-bearers became subject to the crushing weight of a patriarchal world system. But in Christ, that oneness was restored (Galatians 3:28). Modeled by Jesus himself, the dignity and respect women received in the early church was a revolutionary movement unparalleled by any other religion, culture, and time in history.So how did the Bride of Christ acquire such a masculine voice? Why does the organized church continue to hinder the female half of God''s image from exercising their God-given gifts and callings? After nearly five decades of pastoral ministry within conservative Christianity, co-authors Eric and Carol Smith reached the conclusion that traditional male patriarchy does not line up with God''s original design. Interwoven with their personal journey, From the Beginning offers a meticulous biblical apologetic as well as fresh vision for today''s church on what it really means to be God''s image-bearers -- both male and female -- and the restoration of God''s redemptive plan for true manhood and womanhood as it was "from the beginning."
