With Courage and Compassion

Women and the Ecumenical Movement

By: Aruna Gnanadason

With Courage and Compassion celebrates the contributions of women to nations, societies, churches, and the ecumenical movement. Through creative forms of resistance and daring theological exploration, women have enriched and advanced theological discourse and called for transformations in within human relationships with one another and with the earth. The World Council of Churches (WCC) has, since its inception in 1948, responded to the call of women for recognition of their leadership and theological gifts with efforts at affirmation and inclusion. However, all is not well. Structures and processes that permit many forms of exclusion and even violence against women in societies in the church and the ecumenical movement persist. This book analyses what lies at the heart of the struggle women go through and why the vulnerability of women continues to be exploited. It calls for a new theological vision and political imagination to transform unjust attitudes and systems that still exist, particularly in the ecumenical movement.

No Longer a Secret

The Church and Violence Against Women

By: Aruna Gnanadason

Violence against women happens in every country, age group and sector of society. Besides physical violence, it takes subtler form in psychological and emotional demeaning of women. Its extent is seldom acknowledged: its victims are often afraid or embarrassed to speak out - or silenced and discredited if they do. Churches too have turned a blind eye to its presence in their own institutional life, sometimes even condoning it. Few are ready to ask how their own structures may perpetuate abuse of power and keep women insecure and fearful.
