Who Told You That You Were Naked?: Black Women Reclaiming Sexual and Spiritual Goodness
ISBN: 9781478195368 / Angielski / Miękka / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Traditionally the Black church tends to teach more about religion than spirituality and is virtually silent regarding sexuality. "Who Told You That You Were Naked?" focuses on how this tradition adversely affects the single, heterosexual Protestant Black woman's understanding of herself as a sexual being. Using the qualitative research method of phenomenology, this research explores how Black women's experiences and other sources for theological ethics can inform their desire to reconcile sexual and spiritual goodness. "Who Told You That You Were Naked?" reveals that the difficulty in this...

God and Gays: An Open Letter to a Christian Homophobe
ISBN: 9781494972813 / Angielski / Miękka / 26 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The essence of higher consciousness is never casting anyone out of your heart. That's Christian agape, that's bodhisattva compassion, that's unconditional love. But love alone won't do it; there must also be discernment by the opened wisdom eye. Otherwise, it's "sloppy agape." The enlightened person discriminates between beingness and behavior, and judges the latter only. In our beingness, in the deepest center of our existence, we are all one, including those you describe as liberals, faggots, child molesters and other assorted scumbags, even traitors to our nation at the highest levels of...

Junia A Woman An Apostle
ISBN: 9781495355189 / Angielski / Miękka / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. One of the most thorough and comprehensive treatments available on the subject of the name Junia in Romans 16:7 and whether she was a woman apostle. Culminating in a devastating forensic critique of the allegedly scholarly view that the Greek should be translated as 'known to' as opposed to 'outstanding among' the apostles - worth the price of the book on its own. Although the author makes his position clear from the outset (Junia was a woman and an apostle), the reader is encouraged to examine the arguments and evidence for themselves and draw their own conclusion. Written specifically for...

Saving Sex: Sexuality and Salvation in American Evangelicalism
ISBN: 9780199942251 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. When it comes to evangelicals and sex, it seems, whatever the question, the answer is "no." In Saving Sex, Amy DeRogatis argues that this could not be further from the truth. Demolishing the myth of evangelicals as anti-sex, she shows that American evangelicals claim that fabulous sex--in the right context--is viewed as a divinely-sanctioned, spiritual act. For decades, evangelical sex education has been a thriving industry. Evangelical couples have sought advice from Christian psychologists and marriage counselors, purchased millions of copies of faith-based "sexual guidebooks,"...

Sex, Sin, and Our Selves: Encounters in Feminist Theology and Contemporary Women's Literature
ISBN: 9781625640680 / Angielski / Miękka / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Description: Sex, Sin, and Our Selves brings together readings in feminist theological thought and the literature of the acclaimed contemporary writers Michele Roberts and Sara Maitland. Through placing theology in conversation with Roberts's and Maitland's literary engagement with issues of religion and gender, this book explores themes of selfhood, connection, sex, sin, and self-sacrifice. In doing so, it challenges a tendency of feminist theology to seek simple and idealized answers, rather than honor complexity and the need to continue to ask questions. In the encounters in feminist...

Baby, You Are My Religion: Women, Gay Bars, and Theology Before Stonewall
ISBN: 9781844658947 / Angielski / Miękka / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Baby, You Are My Religion argues that American butch-femme bar culture of the mid-20th Century should be interpreted as a sacred space for its community. Before Stonewall--when homosexuals were still deemed mentally ill--these bars were the only place where many could have any community at all. Baby, You are My Religion explores this community as a site of a lived corporeal theology and political space. It reveals that religious institutions such as the Metropolitan Community Church were founded in such bars, that traditional and non-traditional religious activities took...

Description: This book explores the unprecedented challenge of involuntary singleness for women, and the implications of disregarding this challenge for the Christian (and particularly, baptistic) communities of faith. It argues that these communities not only fail involuntarily single women, but also in so doing, suffer a serious detriment to their own communal health and Christian witness. Taking the challenge of involuntary singleness as a test case, this book explores the method of convictional theology and argues for a holistic framework that can draw together the personal, communal, and...

Supongamos que soy un sacerdote, escuchando confesiones, y de pronto una persona me pregunta si puede mantener una vida cristiana, recibiendo los sacramentos, sin renunciar a una relacion homosexual. Le decimos: quien soy yo para juzgarlo? No creo que sea suficiente. No se va a quedar tranquilo. Va a pedir nuestra opinion. Vamos a tener que responderle. Y para eso, hay que situar el tema en el marco de los principios que hacen a la sexualidad, iluminados por la doctrina moral. Y, luego, intentaremos dilucidar nuestra actitud pastoral (previa...
