Heart, Tears, Fruits

This book stems from a series of seminars in response to Pope Francis's call for a profound feminine theology. Endorsements "Beyond feminism and egalitarianism, this book provides a lead into the widely unknown land of women's theology." Hanna-Barbara Gerl-Falkovitz, recipient of the 2021 Ratzinger Prize for Theology "The mystery of the feminine has always challenged humanity. This book invites us to approach this mystery by three paths: heart, tears, fruits. It unfolds this mystery and the deep and beautiful analogy of it with the divine."
