Issues of women's ordination and homosexuality have caused intense debates about mission, authority, and the future of Anglican Communion, but amid this, the theological voices of women have not been clearly heard. This book invites women theologians, teachers, and leaders to reconsider the theological basis of the Church, its mission and ministry.
