Candice Marie Benbow, Robert E. Goss, and Anthony B. Pinn

In Queer Christianities: Lived Religion in Transgressive Forms, Candice Marie Benbow, Robert E. Goss, and Anthony B. Pinn gather a diverse group of scholars and activists to explore the intersections of queerness and Christianity. Through personal narratives, theological reflections, and cultural analysis, this book challenges traditional notions of Christian identity and belonging, revealing the rich diversity of queer Christian experiences.

The contributors to this volume come from a variety of backgrounds and perspectives, but they all share a commitment to challenging the status quo and creating more inclusive and just Christian communities. They write about their own experiences of being queer and Christian, and they offer new ways of thinking about sexuality, gender, and faith. This book is a must-read for anyone who is interested in the future of Christianity, and it is a powerful reminder that God's love is for everyone, no matter who they are or who they love.
