Thank you, Reta Halteman Finger, for your article on head coverings (June) and for the many horizon-expanding articles you’ve written over the years. Your work on the magazine Daughters of Sarah in the 1980s made possible my love for and trust in the Bible in a world where “woman” was a dirty word and we females were subsumed in the word “man.” What doors and windows you and other feminist theologians opened for me! I am so very grateful for your work, which has given me the gift of a Bible full of rich, wonderful, surprising, challenging, always new things.
