This project explores issues of authority, which are foundational to the practice of ministry. After first examining traditional assumptions of authority, the project turns to feminist theologians who offer a different paradigm. The research focuses on six clergywomen serving as pastors/heads of staff in large membership congregations in the Presbyterian Church (USA), and considers how they, as women, embody and exercise authority using a model of partnership rather than the hierarchical model to which the church has been accustomed. The project proposes that this paradigm provides some new alternatives for the church in carrying out its mission.
