PCS 309 Women in the Bible and the Christian Tradition: Role Models for Today
Course Description
This course invites you to catch the living spirit of amazing women witnesses to the in-breaking of the Holy One’s wondrous, passionate, infinite love in our midst. The women presented in this course are radiant reflections of the feminine face of God for the 21st century. As companions of empowerment, they inspire us in our work for justice, peace and equality. Their spirits liberate and energize us on our spiritual journey.
The women of the Bible and the Christian tradition are role models for today. They responded to the Spirit’s call to proclaim the Good News of the inclusivity of God’s reign: that all people are welcome at the banquet table, especially the downtrodden, marginalized, rejected, and powerless. They are prophetic witnesses in the church and world community through a ministry rooted in contemplation and action.
