Abstract
This thesis argues that a doctrinal narrative of creation, fall, and redemption, provides resources to resolve the theological impasse of difference in contemporary feminist theology. Particular attention is given to prayer and liturgical patterns as sights of discursive transgression; in prayer, Christian grammar becomes a site for the radical transgression of discourse itself, and though prayer, it becomes apparent that differentiated humanity is not trapped within the confines of power and discourse, but is opened beyond itself to the divine source of life and liberation.
