Women in Misssion - From the New Testament to Today (Paperback)

Smith tries to redress the balance with a comprehensive history of mission that highlights the critical contributions of women, as well as the theological developments that influenced their role. Beginning with an examination of the New Testament record, Smith goes on to review the long period between the apostolic church and the Second Vatican Council. Following a survey of critical developments since 1965 in both Catholic and other churches, she concludes with a magisterial chapter entitled "A Feminist Missiology for Contemporary Missionary Women. "Women in Mission" is a landmark in women's history and essential reading for anyone engaged in historical, theological, mission, and women's studies.
