Christianity has faced many challenges in the course of its two thousand-year history. It has not fared equally well with all of them. The issue of the female body and attitudes toward it shaped by Christian faith and practice continues to be a vexing one. For this reason, I concentrate on Female Embodiment, considering it of ut most importance in the next century. I agree with those who think that the question of sexual difference is the question of our epoch.1 I put the question in the context of the incarnation because the belief that God became one of us is at the heart of Christian faith. As Karl Rahner says, “Only here is the mystery of our participation in the divine nature accorded us” (Rabner 1966:105). Yet the doctrine of the incarnation does not make it entirely clear what that means for women or for the female body.
