"Phyllis Zagano has made a unique contribution to the debate on women deacons. This book comes at a pivotal moment, during the application and continuation of the Synod on synodality, whose success or failure depends largely on how the Catholic Church resolves the issue of women's roles in ministry."--Massimo Faggioli, Trinity College Dublin
The book examines evidence for women deacons in the early Church, the theological arguments surrounding ordination, and the institutional resistance that continues within the Vatican. Accessible yet scholarly, it provides readers with a concise overview of Church history, canon law, and modern reform efforts.
Zagano argues that the question remains open and central to broader conversations about women?s leadership and ministry in the Catholic Church.
