Introduction

Ecclesia of Women as Synodal Third Space calls for expanding the set frontiers of perception. Knowledge making becomes an exciting adventure when it pushes the established boundaries of the given and treads into the unfamiliar and uncharted paths. It demands going beyond the settled foundations of the known into open-ended and often unrecognized and unacknowledged fields with awareness in order to gather the seeds of wisdom that are scattered on the grounded realities of life. This is precisely what is attempted through the pages of this book, which invites the reader to move beyond the “comfortable” spaces of the established theological knowledge and venture into the new and unexplored realms of understanding.
