Join Ruth Harley on Thursday 5 March for ‘Theology & Gender Justice’. Doors open at 3:30pm for a 4pm start.

“In Christ there is no male and female”, yet in the Church, which is the body of Christ, women have frequently encountered discrimination and, even with the appointment of a female Archbishop of Canterbury, sexism and misogyny persist. So what theological resources can we draw on to work for gender justice within and beyond the Church? And how can scripture, theology and liturgy enable the Church to speak prophetically into significant contemporary issues of sexism and misogyny: domestic abuse, FGM, violent pornography, the gender pay gap, and more?

Ruth Harley, parish priest and feminist theologian, will draw on her PhD research into the vocational narratives of older women to consider how our understanding of the vocation of the Church as the body of Christ can (and should!) be expanded and enriched by taking the experience of women in the Church seriously as a site of theological meaning-making. Gender justice is not a ‘women’s issue’, it’s an essential issue for the whole Church, so come and grapple together with how theology can be a force for good in the struggle against patriarchy.

Pre-booking is not essential, but it would be greatly appreciated to help us plan refreshments and seating.

Please note: This event will take place in a space at Newcastle Cathedral that is accessible by lift. Full details on how to access the space will be provided in advance.
