Feminist practical theology has emerged in the gap between wider
feminist and wider practical theology. It celebrates distinctive
concerns, arguments, emphases, and questions – unafraid to
re-form practical theology in shape and substance, and to guide
feminist theology towards the silences and stories of human lives
that some professional theologies (including those shaped by
feminist commitments) sometimes overlooks. Feminist practical
theology is bold in exploration of doctrinal themes in poetic and
prayerful modes, characteristically collaborative and in search of
alliances with other advocacy perspectives. In the UK, such
commitments have been exemplified by Nicola Slee, whom this volume
honours. Chapters invite readers into wide ranging conversations
that flow from young women’s experiences at university, poetic
practice as theology, queer priesthood, theologies of critical
masculinities, women presiding in worship, Black and decolonial
theologies adjacent to feminist convictions, confrontations with
sexual violence, rest and rewilding, and a post-menopausal Mary.
