Jemila Monroe is planning on starting an Emerging Women Book Club. Here’s her idea:
I’d like to suggest the creation of an Emerging Women’s Book Club — open to both genders, facilitated by emerging women. I sense the need for a female-oriented structure to keep our thinking and practices fresh and enhanced by scholarship and community, and to provide a venue for reflection that could serve as a rigorous, but more collaborative alternative to the tet-a-tet swordsmen style of debate that tends to prevail almost exclusively in emerging theology spheres dominated by men. Our discussions could include healthy debate and sharpening of each other’s ideas, but in a context marked by collaboration, building on each other’s thoughts as well as providing thoughtful critiques and further questions, seeking third alternatives, rather than polarization, responses in didactic, as well as story and poetic form, and the welcoming Mystery to the table.
Anyone interested?
I’m going to be there! This is a season of re-education for me and I will take all the help I can get!
Immersed in the Mystery,
Cynthia
