Stained Glass Ceilings: How Evangelicals Do Gender and Practice Power with Lisa Weaver-Swartz
In Stained Glass Ceilings: How Evangelicals Do Gender and Practice Power, Weaver-Swartz speaks to the intersection of gender and power within American evangelicalism by examining the formation of evangelical leaders in two seminary communities: Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and Asbury Theological Seminary. In her book, Lisa examines the power of story by learning the stories these two seminaries tell about gender and power.
Lisa is a sociologist, and her research agenda expands her attention to the intersection of religion, gender, and culture to a global frame.
