"Sexuality and the Christian Body" addresses the challenges to
traditional Christianity by gay and lesbian Christians and their
critics within the church. This controversial book will be welcomed
for the radical new insights it provides into Christian arguments
about the body.
Rogers starts by offering description and rigorous analysis of
both conservative and liberal conceptions of the body within the
church, exposing similarities between apparently opposing
positions. Drawing on the work of Barth, Geertz, Aquinas and
others, he then goes on to constructively reconnect doctrines like
incarnation, election, and resurrection with race, gender and
sexual orientation. In a final section he offers arguments for the
fittingness in the Christian tradition of marriage-like homosexual
relationships.
