She Preached The Word: Women'S Ordination In Modern America

In this publication the authors try to answer questions like "Who supports women's ordination in their congregations?", "What are the most common reasons for and against women's ordination?", "What effect do female clergy have on young women and girls, particularly in terms of their psychological, economic, and religious empowerment later in life?", "How do women clergy affect levels of congregational attendance and engagement among members?", and "What explains the persistent gender gap in America's clergy?"
