Boldern/Switzerland, May 29 @ 5:30 pm

Join me at Boldern Conference Center in Zürich/Switzerland on May 29, 2008 at 5:30 pm (Hirschengraben 50).

In conjunction with a conference on "The Bible in a (Political) Crisis: Feminist Contributions from the USA", I will give a lecture on "Die Krux mit der Bibelbuchstäblichkeit: Die Christliche Rechte in den USA."

• “Bible Truth, Mega Churches, and the Christian Right in the USA.” In Theologie von Frauen für Frauen? Chancen und Probleme der Rückbindung feministischer Theologie an die Praxis. Beiträge zum Internationalen Kongress anlässlich des zwanzigjährigen Gründungsjubiläums der Europäischen Gesellschaft für theologische Forschung von Frauen (ESWTR), ed. Irmtraud Fischer, 202-226. Münster: LIT, 2007.
• “The Christian Right’s Discourse on Gender and the Bible.” Journal of Feminist Studies in Religion 21, no. 1 (Spring 2005): 83-104.
