Everyday Journal 2.1

“Women in theology.” What comes to mind when you hear those words? The Spring issue of the Everyday Journal is a collection that hits the many questions surrounding those words. With memoir, articles, essays, poetry, and perspectives, the response is as multifaceted as the very issue. Women are alive and active in theological realms, and they find their own way to navigate those waters.

The book reviews are a great example of just how open “women in theology” has become: two scholars writing about ritual theory and the Eucharist, a long-time religion expert writing about the future of Christianity, and a mom and writer thinking about meeting God everyday with the church calendar.
