| Resumo: | This study proposes that the experience of suffering is an integral aspect of women's experience of being human. When women minister, it is frequently within the framework of the experience of personally dealing with birth- and death-related aspects of suffering, or in caring for those who are experiencing pain in one form or another. Key understandings from women writers offer a means for the development of a contemporary Christian ministerial response to the experience of suffering. The essay concludes with reflections upon the place of suffering in relation to the mission of the Church. |
