Theology Women

If it is true that God is a male, then his divinity or deity is expressed in his masculinity. Yet, I am a woman, and there are parts of my body, such as my breasts, vagina, and womb that are telling a story about God that I have never learned or understood. This is an exploration of the significance of a womb that must shed and bleed before it can create. How will we engage our body which cyclically bleeds most of our life and can build and birth a human soul? How will we honor the living womb that lives and, sometimes, dies within us?

In this "love letter to the Black Church," Dr. Lisa Allen examines the history of worship in the Black Church in America (and its legacy of equating liturgy with justice), the enduring effects of white supremacy on its liturgical heritages, and finally proffers a new liturgical paradigm, using a womanist hermeneutic, for students, liturgists, liturgical musicians, and lay people.

Home. It is an elegant word, at once both simple and far-reaching. Home is a place to live in and feel comfortable, but it is much more than that. Home is where we are nurtured, where we live, and where we love. The language of home is universal. It is where we find the eternal in the everyday. But the home has been neglected. To millions of women today, there is nothing worse than being a “homemaker”. If only they knew the supreme value (and reward) of giving loved ones a place to call home.

"What we believe about God is the single most important thing about us." This is a call to all Christians—but especially to Christian women—to engage more deeply in the joys of theology. Priscilla was a woman of sound doctrine who wasn't afraid to share what she knew with others. And this is the privilege of every believing woman: we can explore truth and revel in God's mysteries; we can live as God intended, with real spiritual strength and heartfelt praise. And we too will want to share our discoveries with others.

During its 2000 year history, the Christian faith has been influenced and passed down by faithful women. The women whose stories are in this audiobook were martyrs and nuns, mystics and scholars, writers and reformers, preachers and missionaries, abolitionists and evangelists. These women are examples to us of faith, perseverance, forgiveness, fortitude, truth, and righteousness.
