Description

In this postmodern age, women preachers are finding their "voice" a distinctive way of proclamation. This book looks at the metaphor of voice, how women are moving to voice from silence, and how individuals can make themselves heard by those who don't want to hear.

Acknowledgments
Coming to voice has been, and will continue to be, a lifelong experi ence. Many people along the way, both family and friends, have been an important part of that journey with us.We are grateful for their support and challenge. Our institutions, the Pacific School of Religion and Memphis Theo logical Seminary, granted us sabbatical leaves for finishing the manuscript. Our colleagues at each of these institutions have given encouragement and counsel through the various stages of conversation about voice. Archie Smith, Jr., and Mitzi Minor have offered endless support through conversation and reading various versions of the manuscript. Thanks go to the members of the writing group at PSRJoe Driskill, Jeffrey Kuan, and Sharon Thorntonwho know full well the joy and agony of putting word on page, and to Area VII colleagues at the Graduate Theological Union, particularly those in homileticsJana Childers, Linda Clader, and Tom Rogerswho have offered continuing reassurance. Diane Oliver, Donald McKim, and Evelyn McDonald have also supported our work.A special thanks to David and Betty Buttrick for time away at the cabin. For all of these, we are grateful. The research for this study would not have been as complete without the aid of Alexis Solomon, research assistants at PSR, and the resourceful library staff at MemphisTheological Seminary. In addition,Audrey Englert and the clerical staff at PSR have offered assistance in the physical chal lenge of pumping words into computer and onto printed page.The valu able offerings of Cheryl Cornish, Cynthia Okayama Dopke, Olivia Latu, Sharon Lewis Karamoko, Margaret McKee, Rosalyn Nichols, Alexis Solomon,Almella StarksUmoja, and CherylWard have added fresh voices to our work. Jon L. Berquist has been a helpful and supportive editor.
