Books by Dr Nicola Slee

The figure of the feminine side of Christ is widely present in art and in feminist theology, but the risen Christa has not so far been explored. Nicola Slee, using reflection, poetry and images, revisits many of the central narratives of the gospels and key Christological themes, re-imagining them through the figure of the Christa.

What does it mean to preside like a woman at the Eucharist? Do women do it differently, or should they? How do lay women and men experience women's priestly ministry? This is an accessible, broadly popular book, pushing the boundaries in new and unusual ways, and making a serious contribution to feminist and liturgical debate.

Imaginative and passionate, these prayers bring the full range of women's experience before God. Blessings, laments, celebrations and creeds, they use a variety of forms and can be used by individuals and in a liturgical setting.
