“By seeing women represent God, every woman knows that she, in her distinct embodiment, is included in Christ along with and no less than her fellow male confessor. She fully bears the image of God. Kathy Keller offers the encouragement that both men and women “get to play the Jesus role,” but with men demonstrating his servant authority and women his submissive servanthood. I agree with the encouragement, but not the bifurcation. The incarnation opens the door to all standing in Christ’s authority, which is expressed in Christ’s service. Jesus’s particular embodiment, and faithful life, denies and fracture of his unified nature along sexed lines.”
Amy Peeler, Women and the Gender of God

“Many of us have learned that reading in community is better. We learn more about God when we gather together and listen to each other’s questions and insights. But we also read better in the communion of the saints: drawing on the diverse perspectives of Christians throughout time and across geography, focusing especially on those voices that have gone unnoticed or ignored.”

“The beating heart of orthodoxy is not a personal adventure of self-discovery, a patching together of our preferred versions of the Christian faith. It’s the connection to saints in various cultures and climates, with different languages and traditions, all united by a common confession in Jesus Christ, the king.”
Trevin K. Wax, The Thrill of Orthodoxy: Rediscovering the Adventure of Christian Faith

“Mary offers nothing to women or men who seek to run their own lives. Without question, Mary is subservient. There remains a hierarchy—not between Romans and Jews, rich and poor, or men and women but between God and humanity—and Mary stands in the place of the slave rather than the master.”
Amy Peeler, Women and the Gender of God

Amy Peeler
“The difference between men and God should be obvious. Very different from God’s act of creation, and actually quite similar to women’s role in procreation, men issue forth their offspring from their bodies, and their offspring share in their substance. They contribute something from their own bodies to create new life. With regard to conception of life, then, God is no more like the male than the female because creation does not issue forth from God.”
