{"product_id":"asian-catholic-women-thao-nguyen-9781498594592","title":"Asian Catholic Women: Movements, Mission, and Vision","description":"Studying the various movements among women in the Catholic Church in Asia, the author argues that the preexisting male-dominated church rooted in the colonial era is now being challenged to recentralize itself and exercises an inclusive and participatory ecclesiology in which women should become fuller members of the church and participate in the decision-making processes of the church. For only when the church in Asia discovers and recognizes the richness of women's potential, leadership, charisma, and vision, will it be able to witness to the Gospel values and fulfill its vision of mission in Asia. The author shows that Asian Catholic women have played and continue to play a crucial role in designing and carrying out multiple areas of the church's ministries that men failed to do. Furthermore, the author shows that through the interactions and dialogue with Asian bishops in recent decades, Asian Catholic women have gradually influenced the Asian bishops' consciousness of women's issues and concerns.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thao Nguyen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 149859459X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781498594592\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lexington Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/20\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 162\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.50d","brand":"Thao Nguyen","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44064893960447,"sku":"9781498594592","price":105.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_273b9c78-5544-4508-8299-e5555c0b0e11.jpg?v=1685398206","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/asian-catholic-women-thao-nguyen-9781498594592","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
