Queering is a method that I use theologically. As a verb, “to queer” means to spoil or interfere with. If the theological system is already spoiled, spoiling the spoiled system to make it more inclusive of folks disenfranchised from Christianity is a good. This book is divided into four areas that I queer: sexuality, the Christ, the Bible, and theology. These form the quadrants of my spirituality that aims at the queer reconstruction of Christianity, and they reflect a life that aims to integrate the depths of spirituality and sexuality with a practice of justice. Much of the explicit material on justice does not appear in this volume but is reserved for the sequel to Jesus Acted Up.

Great for:
Those who have read Jesus Acted Up and would like to dive even deeper into a theology that goes beyond what is traditionally professed in churches today.
