About This Book
Why does a denomination prohibiting women clergy support parishes run by women? Why does another denomination opt to ordain women when there are few women seeking to join that clergy? And why have some denominations ordained women so much earlier than others?
In a revealing examination of the complex relationships between religion, social forces, and organizational structure, Ordaining Women draws examples and data from over 100 Christian denominations to explore the meaning of institutional rules about women's ordination.
