Taking Up the Cross: New Testament Interpretations through Latina and Feminist Eyes Barbara E. Reid, OP Discussions of the meaning of Jesus' passion are at a creative high point, in part because of popular events like Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ, and Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code, but also because of a groundswell of interest in contemporary biblical scholarship. Barbara E. Reid, O.P., here pays attention to the role of women in the accounts of Jesus' passion and observes that some of the interpretations of Jesus' death in the New Testament open us up to life and liberation, while others have been used to perpetuate cycles of violence and victimization. When women have identified their suffering with that of Jesus, this has sometimes given them strength, but has also led to a harmful acceptance of unjust suffering. Reid explores five theological "images" of the death of Jesus through conversation with the voices of women from Mexico, Bolivia, and Peru and examination of the roles of women in the New Testament accounts. The result is an illuminating combination of New Testament exegesis with a liberative constructive theology.

Daily Reflections for Lent 2007: Rending Our Hearts by Barbara E. Reid, OP In these reflections, based on the Church's daily readings for Lent, Scripture scholar Barbara E. Reid, O.P., challenges us not to view Lent as a "grim struggle" but as a "joyful season," one in which we can open our hearts to God's love and forgiveness. Through the traditional Lenten practices of prayer, fasting and almsgiving, we can become closer to God, heal our broken hearts and confront injustice. Each day's meditation includes questions for reflection.	Paperback: 64 pages Publisher: Saint Anthony Messenger ISBN-10: 0867166681 ISBN-13: 978-0867166682
