About This Item
USED COPY—near fine condition with minor wear on the cover.
Qu(e)erying Evangelism is the second book in the center for Lesbian and Gay Studies in Religion and Ministry series..jointly sponsored by The Pilgrim Press and the Center for Lesbian and Gay Studies in Religion and Ministry at Pacific School of Religion in Berkeley, California.
The books chronicles DiNovo's own attempts as a minister to expand the membership of a rapidly shrinking congregation in a poor, inner city Toronto neighborhood. As a result, DiNovo discovers that, in her congregations's decision to evangelize among the marginalized and "queer" in their neighborhood, church members are radically changed by realizing how "queer" or different they are themselves.
Qu(e)erying Evangelism asks: How do we understand evangelism biblically and in a completely new way? How does one be a queer theologian in a traditional pastorate and not only be faithful to a queer Christ but grow a congregation with all sorts of differences of opinion? How does the presence of the transgendered / transsexual—or indeed everyone perceived as different—challenge both the theology and praxis of a mainline denomination?
