| Summary: | Evangelicalism was a major source of feminism in the nineteenth century, but it also gave women mixed messages about the use of their newfound agency. The uneasy relations of evangelicalism and feminism have continued in the twentieth century, but there are new signs of a growing rapprochement. Evangelical feminists read and draw upon the work of other Christian feminists, and are making attempts to integrate feminist concerns and perspectives into a more inclusive theology and ethics. Similarities of method and focus between the two groups facilitate this process, though substantial areas of challenge and difference remain. |
