Description
University is a unique time of change and development, including in faith. Christian Women at University takes seriously the ordinary experiences, faith lives and intersectional identities of women studying away from home. Women encounter complex barriers to feeling at home, including sexism, conservative theologies, mental ill-health, homesickness, and the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic. These factors intersect with students' marginalized identities, including their race, sexuality and class. As Christians, their churches, chaplaincies and student Christian societies are important spaces for belonging and making friends, helping them grow in faith. This book uncovers the resources and strategies that Christian women employ in trying to feel at home at university.
Christian Women at University deepens our understanding of women's lived faith in transitional times. It highlights how women studying at university negotiate complex challenges and intersecting identities as they attempt to feel at home in the context of overwhelming change.
