An interdisciplinary gender-sensitive approach toward perspectives on the everyday and the sacred are the hallmark of this volume. Looking beyond the dualistic status-quo, the authors probe the categories, textures, powers, and practices that define how we experience, embody, and understand religion and the sacred, their interconnection, but also disassociation with the secular. Contributions by an international group of feminist theologians and religious studies scholars aim to re-configure the study of both religion and gender: Angela Berlis, Anne-Marie Korte, Kune Biezeveld , Helga Kuhlmann, Maaike de Haardt, Akke van der Kooi, Dorothea Erbele-Kuster, Willien van Wieringen, Magda Misset-van de Weg, Ge Speelman, Mathilde van Dijk, Jacqueline Borsje, Hedwig Meyer-Wilmes, Goedroen Juchtmans, Alma Lanser and Riet Bons-Storm.

"[T]he volume is abundant and rich in the variety of disciplines, methods, religions, contexts, and approaches it engages and contributes to. Especially notable here is the spectrum of theological scholarship it engages. (...) While there remain still more avenues to be opened and explored, Everyday Life and the Sacred travels down paths previously unexplored, discovering and traversing untrodden intersections, and is thus a rich and helpful addition to scholars and students." - Brandy Daniels, University of Virginia, in: Reading Religion, June 26, 2018 (link visited on September 10, 2019)
