What is "good sex" in the globalized world of the twenty-first century? This volume brings together essays by feminist scholars from different religions and cultures to consider how women are redefining sexuality for the common good. The essays explore sexual and social restrictions on women; religiously and socially acceptable avenues of sexual expression; constructions of sexual identities; and attitudes toward women's sexual desires. How is sexual desire constructed within specific cultural and religious contexts? What sacrifices must women make (and how do they make them) simply to have sexual lives? What options and strategies are available to women to dissolve the many restrictions imposed on their sexuality? These are some of the questions being explored.

Feminism has brought many changes to Christian churches. From inclusive language and imagery about the Divine, to an increase in the number of women ministers, churches will never be the same. Yet, even now, there is a lack of substantive structural change in many churches and a certain complacency within denominations. The contributors to this book are the thought leaders of the future who are shaping and, being shaped by, the emerging directions of feminist Christianity. They speak from across the spectrum and from the many racial and ethnic groups that make up the Christian community. Taken together, their voices offer a starting point for building new models of church and society. Issues covered include:. Feminist Theological Visions. Feminist Scriptural Insights. Feminist Ethical Agendas. Feminist Liturgical/Artistic Frontiers. Feminist Ministerial Challenges A must-read for anyone in Christian ministry, as well as religious feminists in and beyond the Christian tradition and church-based study groups.
