This work explores the impact of Christian women—as scholars and
leaders representing the ethnic, national, racial, and
denominational diversity of Christianity today—on all aspects of
life. Women and Christianity explores the experiences of women and
how their daily lives interface with their spirituality and faith.
Beginning with a historical overview, the book presents essays
grouped under five broad headings: women, family, and environment;
socioeconomics, politics, and authority; body, mind, and spirit;
sex, power, and vulnerability; and women, world view, and religious
practice. These essays focus on multiple aspects of women's
experiences and contemporary Christian realities, involving the
interrelatedness of faith, thought, and activism across many strata
of global society. They wrestle with the daily experiences and
challenges women face integrating their lives as women of
faith—as they are advocates, experience agency, and work for
mutuality. It shows how in all these roles, women must negotiate
power, injustice, and the impact of sexism as they work within
systemic oppression amid a patriarchal system, nevertheless
championing change and refusing to be severely compromised.
