DESCRIPTION:
Christian discourse on sexuality, spirituality, and ethics has continued to evolve since this book's first edition was published in 1994. This updated and expanded anthology featuring more than thirty contemporary essays includes more theologians and ethicists of color and addresses issues such as the intersection of race/racism and sexuality, transgender identity, same-sex marriage, and reproductive health and justice.
"Diverse perspectives on a complex issue" according to Yasmeen St. Clair. This book takes into account scholarship from scholars of different races, genders, and standpoints in an effort to give a fuller picture of sexuality and theological reflection. I believe it is a must read for anyone studying theology, and persons who seek to consider sexuality beyond the binaries and strict (unrealistic) categories it currently inhabits in theology.. "Great product" according to Carrie D. Hudson. This was a wonderful purchase and I would purchase more in the future. It's great to get such purchases instantly.
