Women and Ordination in the Christian Churches: International Perspectives
Editat de Dr Ian Jones, Rev Dr Kirsty Thorpe, Rev Dr Janet Woottonen Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 noi 2011
The
growth
of
women's
ordained
ministry
is
one
of
the
most
remarkable
and
significant
developments
in
the
recent
history
of
Christianity.
This
collection
of
essays
brings
together
leading
contributors
from
both
academic
and
church
contexts
to
explore
Christian
experiences
of
ordaining
women
in
theological,
sociological,
historical
and
anthropological
perspective.
Key
questions
include:
How
have
national,
denominational
and
ecclesial
cultures
shaped
the
different
ways
in
which
women's
ordination
is
debated
and/or
enacted?
What
differences
have
women's
ordained
ministry,
and
debates
on
women's
ordination,
made
in
various
church
contexts?
What
'unfinished
business'
remains
(in
both
congregational
and
wider
ministry)?
How
have
Christians
variously
conceived
ordained
ministry
which
includes
both
women
and
men?
How
do
ordained
women
and
men
work
together
in
practice?
What
have
been
the
particular
implications
for
female
clergy?
And
for
male
clergy?
What
distinctive
issues
are
raised
by
women's
entry
into
senior
ordained/leadership
positions?
How
do
episcopal
and
non-episcopal
traditions
differ
in
this?

Review in Theologische Literaturzeitung 35, 2010
"This substantial volume of essays ... [and their] deliberations ... offer a 'state of the art overview of women in ministry at the beginning of the 21st century' ... All its chapters are both accessible and informative..." - John Drane, Theological Book Review, Vol 21 No 1, 2009
The expressed hope of the editors is that the volume "will contribute to the wider debates of feminist theology and ecclesiology" (p. 17). This is a collection rich in theological, historical and social insight, offering a number of perspectives into the challenges facing the ordained ministry of women, and also the challenges presented by it, as Rachele Vernon's Caribbean perspective suggests: "The admission of women to the threefold order of ministry does far more than change the face of Anglican priesthood. It profoundly alters the entire anatomy of ministry' (p. 223). The volume more than lives up to the editors' hope, and it deserves to be read and engaged with more widely than its expensive, hardback publication will perhaps allow.
