Foreword

“This book is a must-read for academicians, practitioners and leaders in the churches and theological institutions as it brings up new perspectives of diakonia in a changing global context.

With Courage and Compassion

Women

“With Courage and Compassion highlights women's pilgrimage of resistance against injustice and discrimination in the ecumenical movement and women's principled and persistent perseverance and courage in pursuing a just community of women and men. It lifts up women icons from ecumenical history as living and intergenerational sources of wisdom to inspire and encourage present and future leadership. A must-read for all in the ecumenical movement.”
