Book Description
This is how theology is done in the real word. Eighteen-year-old Maria Vlaemynck emigrated from Belgium with her traditional culture, unpretentious husband and a dream. InPilgrim Woman, Pilgrim Church, she tells the story of the changes she and her culture-bound theology she had to negotiate. This is her story first, but it is wider. Her dream of studying theology unfolds one crisis at a time and her theology walks through the same thicket her emotions and her dreams do. She fashions a theology she needs out of the same history she sees her church using. Her story is the church's story and yours and mine.
