Introduction -- Conceiving Quiverfull : the movement in historical and cultural perspective -- Stories from the full quiver --Motherhood in the full quiver -- Children and childhood in the full quiver -- The family in the full quiver -- Conclusion
Summary
Quivering Families is a first of its kind project that employs history, ethnography, and theology to explore the Quiverfull movement in America. Quivering Families argues that despite the apparent strangeness of their practice, Quiverfull is a thoroughly evangelical and American phenomenon. Far from offering a countercultural vision of the family, Quiverfull represents an intensification of longstanding tendencies. The movement reveals the weakness of evangelical theology of the family and underlines the need for more critical and creative approaches
