Synopsis
Focusing on passages about women in the Bible and feminine imagery of God, The Women’s Lectionary reimagines the liturgical calendar of preaching for one year. These women are daughters, wives, and mothers. They are also strong leaders, evil queens, and wicked stepmothers. They are disciples, troublemakers, and prophetesses. Ashley Wilcox explores how the feminine descriptions of God in the Bible are similarly varied – how does it change our understanding if God is feminine wisdom, has wings, or is an angry mother bear?
