Book Hero Magic created this recommendation. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! IS THIS YOUR NEXT READ?

This book is ideal for readers interested in inclusive theology, LGBTQI spirituality, and those seeking a fresh perspective on faith that integrates lived experience with religious thought.

Queer Holiness seeks to find a better way to do theology – not about, but with and of LGBTQI people – taking insights from the sciences and personal narratives as it strives to answer the question: ‘What does human flourishing look like?’

Description

LGBTQI people in the church have spent a long time being told what God expects of them and how they should behave. From prohibitions on who they might love or marry, to erasure and denial, the theological record is one in which LGBTQI people are far too often objectified and their lives seen as the property of others.

In no other significant religious question are 'theological' arguments made that so clearly reject overwhelming scientific and experiential knowledge about the human person. Queer Holiness seeks to find a better way to do theology—not about, but with and of LGBTQI people—taking insights from the sciences and personal narratives as it seeks to answer the question: 'What does human flourishing look like?'
