Contributing Authors:Fr. John BehrDr Spyridoula Athanasopoulou-KypriouDr. Dionysios SklirisFr. Andrew LouthDr Mary CunninghamMet Kallistos WareRev Dr Sarah Hinlicky WilsonDr Kyriaki Karidoyanes FitzGeraldDr Carrie Frederick FrostDr Paul LadouceurLuis Josue SalesThis book--a collaborative, international initiative, involving academic theologians and practitioners--invites the reader into a conversation about the ordination of women in the Orthodox Church. It explores questions relating to the significance of being human, Eve's curse, sexed bodies, the place of Mary, the nature of priesthood, the role of the deacon, and the task of being a priest in the twenty-first century. The reflections move across three main areas of discussion: issues of theological anthropology, particular questions pertaining to the priesthood and the diaconate, and contemporary practices. In each area the implications for ordaining women in the Orthodox Church today are explored.
