description: Beyond Patching clarifies the language and concerns of feminist spirituality and effectively addresses the excruciating tensions that have arisen because of the sometimes morally unacceptable way women are treated in the church. Furthermore, it is timely in that it challenges patriarchy in principle and in practice, discusses the role of scripture as both part of the problem and a potential resource for a liberationist approach, and points out the critical gravity of our responsibility to address gender- and sex-based injustice and violence in our Church.
