<span><span>Women Bishops and Rhetorics of Shalom: A Whole Peace</span><span> argues that the theological concept of shalom offers a way forward for progressive Christians who want to advocate for social justice based on their faith in an increasingly globalizing world characterized by many faiths. To do so, the book considers the rhetorical leadership of three women bishops who are all “firsts” in important ways: Marjorie Matthews, the first woman bishop in any mainline Post-Reformation church, Leontine Kelly, the first woman bishop of color in any mainline church, and Katharine Jefferts Schori, the first woman to lead a national church in the Anglican Communion. This book is recommended for scholars interested in communications, religious studies, and gender studies.</span></span>
<span><span>Taking three women bishops as exemplars, this book argues that the concept of shalom offers a way for Christians to advocate for social justice in an increasingly multi-faith world.</span></span>
