“Marc Ellis is emerging as perhaps the most important contemporary Jewish theologian.”

Until the Rain

Women

Foreword

“Sorman's stories are deeply moving and give a vivid sense of what life under occupation means for Palestinian women, especially those who can relate it to theological reflection and biblical interpretation. Most deeply, the book reflects her many years of sharing in the daily life of Palestinians, especially women, and what the occupation means for those living under it from day to day.”

We Dare to Dream

Theology

“One of the most important developments in feminist theology is its increasing globalization by Third World women. We Dare to Dream is an exciting example of this contextualization of feminist thought by Asian Christian women.”

Wising Up

Women

“Wising Up is a wise book. Black and Elkins gather together a wonderful treasure of wisdom on women's experiences of vulnerability, illness, aging, and dying. They provide useable liturgies to guide support communities in sustaining one another in these processes of transition in older life.”

With Passion and Compassion

Theology

“"A vivid testimony to the 'irruption within the irruption' of Third World feminist theology, arising from within the liberation theologies of Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Only with the voicing of the Third World woman's perspective does it become possible to know what it really means to make a preferential option for the poor. For the poor Third World woman is the poorest of the world's poor.”

WomanPrayer WomanSong

Women

“"With Miriam Therese Winter's WomanPrayer, WomanSong, the feminist movement in the Christian community goes beyond the critique of patriarchal bias in religion and begins a new phase. Through a new religious encounter with the Mother-spirit of God, a new religious culture begins to develop that also renews the liberating grace and power of biblical faith. For the first time the church prays and sings the ancient story of creation and redemption through women's creative imagination.”

Zionism through Christian Lenses

Theology

“Zionism is a topic on which there is much confusion among Christians. Many Christians have the impression they should be pro-Zionist in order to overcome Christian anti-Semitism and give appropriate support to the State of Israel. How Zionism is related to the Christian tradition is poorly understood. Carole Monica Burnett has filled an important lacuna with Zionism through Christian Lenses, covering topics such as Zionism in Scripture, in ancient and modern Christianity, and in Catholic social teaching.”
