"Jule and Pedersen have assembled an impressive and stimulating array of essays -- from the autobiographical to the historical, from the pedagogical to the philosophical, from the theological to the mystical, from the familial to the biblical -- that test and probe the fluid boundaries of Christian faith and feminist consciousness. The contributors to this powerful collection neither say nor sound 'the same, ' but their voices all together rise in chorus to celebrate the vibrant possibility of being feminist "and "being Christian."--Michael Lodahl, Point Loma Nazarene University"This collection of essays deepens the relatively unexplored connection between feminism and Christianity in a variety of academic fields, including biblical studies, history, linguistics, literature, political science, and theology. The tenor of the volume emerges from the integration of personal experience with academic expertise."--Priscilla Pope-Levison, Seattle Pacific University  Be the first to write a customer review
