But after only a year in office, its presidential candidate, Mohamed Morsi, was ousted by the Egyptian military. So where did the Brotherhood go wrong?

| The First Woman to Lead America's Evangelical Lutherans |
August 29, 2013 |
|

It's pews have shrunk nearly every year since it was founded in 1987, and it lost nearly half a million members in 2010 and 2011. Into this landscape walks Elizabeth Eaton, the first woman elected to lead the church. Her solution to get people to join? "We'll give out toaster ovens." (She's kidding, of course.)
