Feminist Theology
Background

Feminist theology is
mainly concerned
with trying to
understand scripture
and Christian
tradition in the light
of feminist ideas.
Introduction

Feminist theologians
are reinterpreting
the basic question of
how theologians
may go about
creating systems of
thought.
Introduction

Feminist theologians
notice that the Bible
tells the story of
God’s dealing with
humanity, yet very
rarely is this
explored from a
female perspective.

The Development of
Feminist Theology

Galatians 3:28
“There is neither
Jew or Greek, slave
nor free, male nor
female, for you are
all one in Christ
Jesus.”
The Development of
Feminist Theology

Important research
starts with such
simple things as
digging up the past
and trying to locate
women.
The Development of
Feminist Theology

Women are often
concerned about
things neglected by
men and theology
will be a far richer
experience and
more meaningful
when it includes
both aspects.
Summary

I came away
thinking that men
and women really
need each other.
Without the other
sex we are just lost.
