In Her Words a collection of selections from the writings of major female theologians, draws together texts from a broad array of confessional traditions, vividly illustrating the richness and diversity of women's contributions. Each piece presents a salient excerpt from its original text, set in modern English translation, with a brief introduction out-lining its historical and theological context. This book illustrates both the challenge and enriching contributions made to contemporary Christian theology by the increasing number of female theologians. The insight and perspectives brought together by Amy Oden in this comprehensive volume will prove useful to university and seminary classes, for those who want to discover for themselves and want to educate those within their influence about the contributions of women to the development of Christian thought.
