Although we are about to celebrate the 1700th anniversary of the council, women are still fighting to find their place at the table of critical church decision-making processes. Doctrines and sometimes exegetical theological error driven by patriarchy have been used as tools to silence the voice of women in the church. Although the Council of Nicaea was called to respond to a theological error, it is vital that the 1700th-anniversary celebration creates another platform to challenge the theological posture that has relegated women in the church to non-essential duties. This inspires the spirit of Nicaea, which allowed for theological arguments to be heard as a means of charting the way forward to make the church stronger, despite the threat posed by Arianism.</p>","PeriodicalId":54038,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Mission","volume":"114 1","pages":"75-84"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2025-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144716805","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Some bishops with disabilities were present: for example, Paphnutius of the Upper Thebaid, Potamon of Heraklea, and Paul of Neo-Caesarea. These bishops became persons with disabilities because of the persecution of Christians under the Roman Empire. However, we can debate whether their presence represented the presence of persons with disabilities because they had been bishops before they became disabled through persecution. They came to the Council of Nicaea mainly as bishops, not as persons with disabilities. They were respected as living martyrs who were faithful to Jesus Christ and imitated him in his suffering. They were unlike persons with disabilities in common life, who were not respected in society and became targets of charity in the early church. Today, while some persons with disabilities are present in the church leadership, most are not fully welcome and some are still marginalized.

In this article, sacred imagination allows us to consider diaconal voices from two other periods whereby Pan-African women deacons in Zimbabwe and the United States are providing diaconal leadership in seasons of ecclesial trends similar to those that affected the Council of Nicaea.

The controversy, which arose within the Christian clergy of Alexandria, particularly between Arius and his opponents, formed the central agenda of the council. The resulting Nicene Creed affirmed Jesus as “begotten, not made, of one being with the Father” <i>(homoousios),</i> establishing a unified doctrinal position within the church. However, while women had held notable roles in the early church, they were not intentionally involved in the deliberations. The council's decisions not only established doctrinal norms but also dictated the parameters of influence, leadership, and historical recognition. Thus, the council represents a missed opportunity. By not recognizing the importance of women in its critical deliberations, the council laid the groundwork for systemic patterns of exclusion that would persist for centuries.</p>","PeriodicalId":54038,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Mission","volume":"114 1","pages":"85-97"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2025-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144716806","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, according to Philostorgius, a Christian church historian of Late Antiquity, Constantine's stepsister Constantia played an influential role in the decisions of some sceptical key players to sign the creed. Some non-Christian sources on Constantine's religious policy at the time of Nicaea ascribe an even greater role to women. They explain the emperor's conversion as an effect of the influence of the imperial court, in which, according to them, women played a key role. These sources even see the conversion of the emperor resulting in what they consider to be a “feminization” of the Roman Empire. This article briefly presents Constantia as a key female actor of imperial religious politics according to Philostorgius and looks at the non-Christian polemical accusation of “feminization” against Christianity in the age of Constantine. The concluding section examines the Roman Empire's reception of feminization in two historical interpretations of Constantine which are still influential in Western European discourses.</p>","PeriodicalId":54038,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Mission","volume":"114 1","pages":"52-61"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2025-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/irom.12528","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144716803","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Nicene Creed from 325 CE (later extended to become the Nicene-Constantinopolitan Creed in 381 CE) is deeply incarnational, with an understanding of salvation that is rooted in birth. The later creed dilutes this emphasis through its additions, and translations of both into English have obscured the radical message that in Christ God became <i>human</i> (not only man) for all humankind. This article takes the original Nicene statement seriously and interprets Christianity as a faith of natality and incarnation rather than, as in much Western Christianity, of the cross. It reinterprets Nicaea through feminist philosophy, uncovering a more original reading. It suggests that since the celebration of Christmas moves hearts in even secular Europe, such a reading provides an opening for mission today.</p>","PeriodicalId":54038,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Mission","volume":"114 1","pages":"6-17"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2025-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144716843","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
