Reviews
'This important book draws together how we learn both from other churches and from the voices of women. As it does so it challenges us to reflect on how we listen properly to the experiences of those who are different from us or whose voices are sometimes not heard. It is a rich resource and well worth reading carefully and thoughtfully for all the wisdom it contains.' -- Paula Gooder

It is a rich resource and well worth reading carefully and thoughtfully for all the wisdom it contains.' -- Paula Gooder, Canon Chancellor, St Paul's Cathedral It would have been enough to tell the fascinating story of a fruitful project with women deeply committed to a wide range of churches, but Gabrielle Thomas does even more. She gives prophetic insights, together with wise, accessible theology, on key issues (including painful ones) relevant to all churches, and in the process she adds an important dimension to one of the most promising Christian movements of our time, Receptive Ecumenism -- David Ford, Regius Professor of Divinity Emeritus, University of Cambridge
