Customer Reviews

This book is a rich source for understanding a complex issue

I am so grateful to Kaye Ashe for writing such a concise, readable text relating to the complex issues that face women in the Catholic Church today. I have been researching this subject for over ten years, and I am always looking for good reference material for adult education classes. This will be an excellent resource because it covers the subject in such a way that it can be adaptable to many levels of learning experiences. I hope the book finds its way into the hands of every spiritual director and also the college classroom for it is timely and challenging. We owe such a debt to Kaye Ashe and the many women theologians whose prophetic voices will help bring about the spiritual transformation of our church. I loved this book; it gives me hope.
