Something Wicked: Why Feminism Can't Be Fused with Christianity

• Crisis of modern feminism
• Faith, culture, history & psychology 
• Feminism as a rival religion
• Provocative work on the false promises of the movement
• Renewed vision of womanhood

The cultural battle over faith, family, and life has been raging for decades, yet Christians continue to lose ground.

In this compelling and incisive book, Dr. Carrie Gress argues that the failure of pro-life and pro-family movements lies in a deeper, often unrecognized problem. Feminism has not simply influenced society but has formed a rival belief system that imitates Christianity while quietly undermining it.

Drawing from history, psychology, philosophy, and cultural analysis, Dr. Gress exposes feminism’s anti-Christian origins and its development into what she describes as a shadow church, complete with its own moral code, virtues, and vision of salvation. 

She shows how focusing only on issues such as abortion or gender ideology misses the broader spiritual framework that has reshaped how many women understand freedom, identity, and happiness.

With clarity and courage, the book challenges the widespread assumption that feminism naturally aligns with Christian values. Dr. Gress explains why the pursuit of absolute autonomy fails to satisfy the human heart, how the devaluation of feminine gifts has harmed both women and society, and why attempts to merge Christianity with feminism ultimately fracture the faith.

Offering more than critique, this work presents a path forward that restores a true understanding of womanhood, heals divisions between men and women, strengthens the bond between mother and child, and re-centers God as the source of dignity, love, and meaning.
