Here is a book that will encourage and empower women preachers to
preach as women, as feminist theologians and as those who will make
a difference to the Church. It provides a step-by-step guide to
approaching the Bible from a feminist standpoint with suggestions
for how to develop your own voice as a preacher. Susan Durber gives
advice on how to preach the lectionary, on how to find new angles
on well-known texts and on how to challenge and recast
well-established interpretations. To show how the theory works in
practice she includes sample sermons from her own preaching. The
book will inspire reluctant and tired preachers to seize an
important challenge with new energy. "'This is a book which every
woman preacher will value highly and from which every male preacher
will learn a great deal. It succeeds in being at once fresh and
sane, scholarly and lucid. Contrary to much contemporary opinion,
Susan Durber still believes passionately in the preaching ministry
and shows how women can use the text in a way that is both biblical
and authentic. She also shows how it is possible to preach without
the anti-Judaism that continues to disfigure far too many sermons.
I highly recommend this book both for its general themes and the
actual examples of sermons preached, which can also be useful for
personal meditation.'" The Rt Revd Richard Harries, Lord Harries of
Pentregarth, former Bishop of Oxford
