Drawing on her study of more than 150 sermons and extensive interviews with the clergywomen who preached them, Lawless argues that women have changed traditional preaching in ways that reflect their socialization as women and their experiences of being female in America. Many of the women in her study were expected to take courses on the art of preaching as part of their seminary training. Most of them rejected the sermon structure and strategies they were taught in seminary, viewing them as part of a \"male\" homiletic tradition, and developed styles that celebrate their commitment to connection, relationship, and dialogue.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Women Preaching Revolution Lawless analyzes the sermons she has collected to determine whether the women who preached them have, in fact, developed new sermon traditions that are radically different from those that they were expected to learn in seminary. She asks what rhetorical structures and strategies they employ and how much the new styles owe to the influence of liberation, process, and feminist theologies. As she explores these questions, Lawless also examines the relationship of tests and performances.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eElaine J.
