520    The Gender of Piety is an intimate history of the Brethren
       in Christ Church in Zimbabwe, or BICC, as related through 
       six individual life histories that extend from the early 
       colonial years through the first decade after 
       independence. Taken together, these six lives show how men
       and women of the BICC experienced and sequenced their 
       piety in different ways. Women usually remained tied to 
       the church throughout their lives, while men often had a 
       more strained relationship with it. Church doctrine was 
       not always flexible enough to accommodate expected 
       masculine gender roles, particularly male membership in 
       political and economic institutions or participation in 
       important male communal practices. The study is based on 
       more than fifteen years of extensive oral history research
       supported by archival work in Zimbabwe, the United Kingdom,
       and the United States. The oral accounts make it clear, 
       official versions to the contrary, that the church was led
       by spiritually powerful women and that maleness and 
       mission-church notions of piety were often incompatible. 
       The life-history approach illustrates how the tension of 
       gender roles both within and without the church manifested
       itself in sometimes unexpected ways: for example, how a 
       single family could produce both a legendary woman pastor 
       credited with mediating multiple miracles and a man - her 
       son - who joined the armed wing of the Zimbabwe African 
       People's Union nationalist political party and fought in 
       Zimbabwe's liberation war in the 1970s. Investigating the 
       lives of men and women in equal measure, The Gender of 
       Piety uses a gendered interpretive lens to analyze the 
       complex relationship between the church and broader social
       change in this region of southern Africa.
