Grounded in the Body in Time and Place in Scripture: Papers by Australian Women Scholars in the Evangelical Tradition (Australian College of Theology Monograph)

In my bibliographies there are no women in the evangelical tradition and no Australian women scholars. This unique volume addresses this gap with eighteen biblically rich and academically rigorous chapters by established and emerging Australian women scholars in the evangelical tradition. The authors consider our relationship with the land and Indigenous peoples neighborhood embodiment (dis)ability abortion leadership work architecture the media Song of Songs and domestic violence and Jeremiah and weaponized rape and demonstrate recent methodologies such as a social identity reading of Exodus sensory readings of Psalms and Johns Gospel and discipleship readings of Mary and Martha and the woman at the well.
