Summary

This book, in light of recent feminist theology on the doctrine of sin, attempts to provide historical support for such feminist considerations. It examines fourth-century church fathers, John Wesley, and Phoebe Palmer as places where an alternative of traditional definitional definition, pride, can be found.

Author Biography

Diane Leclerc is Professor of Historical Theology at Northwest Nazarene University, where she has taught since 1998.
