Sommario/riassunto |
|
Interviews with more than one hundred women reveal the theology behind prayer shawl making, a lay ministry that takes place in churches of nearly every denomination. These "handmade" conceptual frameworks provide a rich case study of ordinary theology in action, outlining women's religious creativity and reflection across the American Christian landscape. |
