Truly Our Sister: A Theology of Mary in the Communion of Saints | Elizabeth A. Johnson
2 posts
The author offers an interpretation of Mary that is theologically sound, spiritually empowering, ethically challenging, socially liberating, and ecumenically fruitful. She construes the image of Mary so as to be a source of blessing rather than blight for women's lives in both religious and political terms.
I find "In a self-determining act of personal autonomy, she decides to go for it" significantly more satisfying than "Mary said yes." Thank you, Elizabeth Johnson!
