there's a few approaches to the issue of historically using exclusively male language for God, such as compensation (using exclusively female language) or degendering (using they or just using God as a pronoun), but I also think there's a compelling third option is just treating all gendered language for God like drag; it is a little persona God puts on to condescend to our level. we can get a bit fun with it.
we can have she/her God the Father because gendered language - like all language - cannot fully capture who God is. and i think this option also serves as a little bit of theological education bc it reminds us that the anthropomorphic images of God are provisional and temporary.
