Description
Art and feminist theology often explore the figure of the feminine side of Christ. However, the risen Christa has had little if any coverage within these fields. Now, "Seeking the Risen Christa" (by Nicola Slee) uses a well-crafted combination of reflection, illustration and poetry to investigate the Risen Christa.
The discussion revolves around the central narratives of the gospels and the major Christological themes. These subjects are re-imagined and revisited from the hypothetical perspective of Christa.
Ultimately, Nicola Slee wants "Seeking The Risen Christ" to represent a search for a risen Christa and therefore encourage readers to develop a freer, unlimited relationship with Christ.
