Power for Resistance: Abuse and Self-Giving Care\6. Power for Christ: Self-Giving and Incarnation Feminist theologians have established that the self-giving doctrines can disempower women and other oppressed persons, teaching passivity and evasion of one s own self-development. Christ s kenosis, or self-emptying on the cross offers a central example of sacrifice for others to the detriment of one s own self-care. And yet, in contrast to previous feminist theologies, this book argues for the power available in self-giving. This feminist christology affirms that we come into ourselves through our own kenosis.
