Here are the distinctive voices of Orthodox women -- wrestling with the realities of their lives and contexts but also of their faith within the long and ambiguous legacy of the Christian tradition for women. Keenly aware of the insights and shortcomings of Orthodox Christianity, they reflect here the historical, theological and practical aspects of women's experience. Drawing especially from North America, Europe, and Greece, the volume includes noted theologians and biblical scholars, but also women in ministry and counselling, political science and public service. Together they envision a future in which Christian life delivers on the promise of those early days when "many women were with him". Co-published with the Volos Academy for Theological Studies
