* Ecumenical appeal

Residing at the intersection of constructive theology and critical social theory, this book
provides a resource for both students and clergy to reinterpret Christian theology and
re-imagine Christian faith in the twenty-first century.

The author seeks “to encourage and equip Christian faith communities to move beyond
the decades-long stalemate over human sexuality and gender identity” because “Queer
gifts emerge in Christian communities when lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender
(LGBT) people no longer feel compelled to justify their presence in those communities.”
Useful in both seminary classrooms and in congregational settings, the book is a
contribution to the still-emerging field of queer theology, translating the rigors of scholarly
research into transforming proposals for faith communities.

AUDIENCE: For seminary classes, small group study in congregations, and readers with
an interest in queer theology.
