This volume probes the meaning and ethical implications of the
powerful symbol of vocation from the vantage of contemporary Catholic
women, with particular attention to the experiences of women
religious. Intended as a follow-up to Liberating Conscience: Feminist
Explorations in Catholic Moral Theology, the new book will benefit
many readers, including Catholic leaders, laity, and religious, as
well as persons interested in Christian ethics and American religious
history more generally. The work treats twentieth-century history and
more recent developments, including tensions between the Vatican and
progressive Catholics, the development of lay ministries, and the
movement to ordain women deacons, priests, and bishops.
