아시아 여성신학자 이선애 목사의 에큐메니칼 활동 연구

Abstract

Sun-Ai Lee is well known in Korean ecumenical circles and among Asian women. She will be remembered as the pioneer of the Asian feminist Ecumenical Movement.She tried to help women in Asia to give voice to their social restrictions. She published the first Asian feminist theological magazine, In God’s Image, and worked as the Asian coordinator of EATWOT where she represented Asian women. Also, she established the Asia Women’s Resource Center (AWRC) to build the ground work for Asian feminist theology. Sun-Ai Lee’s theology is rooted in the context of oppression against women in Asian religious cultures. Her theological focus is based on equality and ecumenical partnership.<BR> The author of this essay argues that we can renew our faith and attitude by learning Asian feminist theology and studying the life and ecumenical feminist contributions of Sun-Ai Lee who lived a life of love towards Asian women.
