A required text for my Intro to Theological Reflection class. Jones does a decent job of explaining feminist theory and how Christian theology utilizes these concepts. She explores how feminist theology is in conversation with concepts of scriptural interpretation, the nature of sin, and the role of the church as the Body of Christ.
She uses illustrations from her women's small group and church community to help define concepts. I found the chapters on Feminist Theory to be the most helpful.

A life-changer, for the better! A little slow going in spots, reading it for a class. She's an interesting lady, wading in spots, but mostly interesting..
Unlike most feminist theoreticians and theologians, Jones has an acknowledged influence from John Calvin, who most people would agree is certainly no feminist. Feminist Theory Jones talks about the confusion of the idea of feminist theory in terms of her own experience of trying to explain it to interested but non-academic people. While it is certainly true that there is a fair share of ivory-tower-type elements in feminist theory, on the whole feminist theory has far reaching and more practical applications that anyone can utilise. Ultimately feminist theory strives toward the identification of oppressive structures and attitudes and works to overcome these in society.
Feminist Theology Jones in this section explores what is meant by Christian theology and what is meant by feminist theology. For some people, it immediately calls up negative images of angry women destroying the church with pagan rituals. Jones' own tradition comes out of the Reformation; Luther and Calvin are constant companions in the development of her theological thought, as are the doctrines of basic Reformation Protestantism.
She concentrates on this work particularly on three topics - faith, sin and community.
Cartographies of Grace As this topic, the subtitle of the entire volume, indicates, Jones is looking toward a mapping technique to show metaphorically the various relationships highlighted in the text. Remapping different discussions which include the way women are traditionally viewed, countered with a new vision of women's place in creation; the liberation and freedom inherent in the gospel message not just for women but for all people in creation reflected in our faith and worship practices; the place of sanctification and justification in current theological thought.
Strategic Essentialism Jones develops an interesting idea called strategic essentialism, which goes beyond the essentialist versus constructivist ideas of gender and sexuality.
