520 1 |a "Today the Catholic Church finds itself in the midst of a controversy concerning the nature of authority - most particularly, the authority of women. For many years feminist theologicans have criticized the church for its "patriarchal structure" and attacked the "sin of sexism." Many wish to reform the Church according to a democratic model and alter its sacramental structure along egalitarian lines. Voices calling for the ordination of women are loud and receive attention from various media. It appears that the Church is in need of a creative answer to the thorny subject of ecclesial authority, and this book helps to provide such an answer." "For most of the Church's history, authority has been understood in legalistic and juridical terms and been seen as the power to rule. But this approach is false, dangerous, and not at all at the heart of Catholicism. Author Monica Migliorino Miller articulates a theology that breaks open the essence of ecclesial authority. Authority, if it is authority at all, derives from and exists for authentic Christian worship, namely, the Holy Eucharist." "The Catholic Church doctrinally teaches that women cannot be priests. The common assumption then is that women are without authority and that they are, in fact, deprived of proper office and leadership. But, if authority is derived from Eucharistic worship, then authority is fundamentally the authority of a covenant. This book shows that this covenant is spoken according to a primordial sexual language rooted in creation itself. This sexual language is the marital order of sexual persons, male and female, which forms the basis of the covenant of Christ's salvation." "Ecclesial authority has to do with sacramentally speaking the covenant in the world so that the world may have communicated to it the love of God and knows its own response to this God. The question, which is so troubling to the world and the Church, is: What is the language of the woman in this covenant? The authority of the covenant means that there must be a voice constitutive of redemption that is not God's. This is the voice of the Church, creation, nature, and mankind, and it is the voice of the woman in the head/body relation." "This book takes seriously, in a manner that is necessarily radical, the voice of women as the voice of the Church. If Christ is head to the Church, and if Christ stands as bridegroom, then the Church as his body must be female in relation to him. To confuse these sexual symbols in any way obscures the communication of the covenant and is indeed an attempt to cause its abolition and with it the abolition of the significance of the woman."--BOOK JACKET
