Women Christian: New Vision

Religion & Spirituality

Women have enriched and enabled Christianity for more than 2,000 years. In this, the first of three path-breaking volumes, theologian Mary T. Malone situates Christian women in their time and context, thus creating a continuous historical narrative rather than simply a series of vignettes. She uses women's writings and voices as primary sources on almost every page. All women, Christian or otherwise, who seek an understanding of their past will value this unprecedented, comprehensive history of Christian women and their contributions, not only to faith but to civilization.

Christian Books & Bibles

In this final volume of her historic trilogy, Mary Malone draws on the vast sources of documentation since the sixteenth century to place such women as Teresa of Avila, Therese of Lisieux, Jane de Chantal, and Marguerite Bourgeois in the context of their times. Beginning with the great upheaval of the Reformation, she covers such issues as: Women's Religious Communities, Women Mystics, Women Missionaries in the New World, the Marian Age (1850-1950), Women and Vatican II, and much more. Malone also explores how the examples of Christian women in Asia, Africa, and Latin America have expanded the consciousness of their sisters in the West. She concludes with a discussion of the challenges to contemporary Christianity by women's spirituality and Christian feminism (particularly ecofeminism). These issues, breathtaking in their scope, have released the kind of spiritual energy that will reverberate through the church of the twenty-first century.

Four women have been recognized by the Vatican as Doctors of the Church and thus form a part of the magisterium (authentic teaching authority) of the Roman Catholic Church. Here, theologian Mary T. Malone adeptly explores the stories of these visionaries, introducing us to the wisdom of the formidable Hildegard of Bingen; the all-encompassing compassion of Catherine of Siena; the groundbreaking writings of Teresa of Ávila; and finally, the heartfelt "Little Way" of the much-loved Thérèse of Lisieux.This timely and engrossing work brings to life the trials and triumphs of these inspiring women, whose bravery and intellectual prowess opened the door for new discussions on the role of women in the Church.

Four Women Doctors of the Church: Hildegard of Bingen, Catherine of Siena, Teresa of Avila, Therese of Lisieux

This book explores what the author terms `Women Christianity' from a historical perspective, following the story from biblical times to the present day. If the Christian Church is to survive, it is clear that it must be a more inclusive Church where the gifts of women and men are equally recognized, and where the whole notion of ordination has to be revamped from the bottom up.

The Elephant in the Church: A Woman's Tract for Our Times

Columba Pr

Women are the elephant in the Church. They have been perpetually silenced, ignored and discounted. They are not required to make any contribution, except for obedience. In every public ecclesiastical event, such as the election of a pope, it is glaringly obvious that women are entirely irrelevant. This revised edition explores what the author terms `Women Christianity' from a historical perspective, following the story from biblical times to the women mystics of the Middle Ages and, finally, the Christian feminists in the years following Vatican II who began their own journeys of discovery into the history of women in the Church after failing to find it in traditional theological texts. If the Church is to survive, it is clear that it must be more inclusive, where the gifts of women and men are equally recognized.
