Feminist analysis and practice have recognized this. Feminist Christianity is reshaping religious institutions and religious life in more holistic, inclusive, and justice-focused ways.\"\u003cbr\u003e--from the Introduction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFeminism has brought many changes to Christian religious practice. From inclusive language and imagery about the Divine to an increase in the number of women ministers, Christian worship will never be the same. Yet, even now, there is a lack of substantive structural change in many churches and complacency within denominations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe contributors to this book are the thought leaders who are shaping, and being shaped by, the emerging directions of feminist Christianity. They speak from across the denominational spectrum, and from the many diverse groups that make up the Christian community as it finds its place in a religiously pluralistic world. Taken together, their voices offer a starting point for building new models of religious life and worship.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTopics covered include feminist: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTheological Visions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScriptural Insights\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEthical Agendas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLiturgical and Artistic Frontiers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinisterial Challenges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContributors include: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMar a Pilar Aquino - Rachel A.
