BOOKS FOR WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH: “You Have Stept out of Your Place”: A History of Women and Religion in America By Susan Hill Lindley. Women throughout American history have repeatedly been accused of “stepping out of their places” as many have fought for more rewarding roles in the church and society. In this book, Susan Hill Lindley demonstrates that just as religion in the traditional sense has influenced the lives of American women through its institutions, values, and sanctions, so women themselves have had a significant effect on the shape of American religion through the years.
