This volume combines insights from secular sexuality education,
trauma studies, and embodiment to explore effective strategies for
teaching sexuality and religion in colleges, universities, and
seminaries. Contributors to this volume address a variety of
sexuality-related issues including reproductive rights, military
prostitution, gender, fidelity, queerness, sexual trauma, and
veiling from the perspective of multiple religious faiths.
Christian, Jewish, and Muslim scholars present pedagogy and
classroom strategies appropriate for secular and religious
institutional contexts. By foregrounding a combination of
"perspective transformation" and "embodied learning" as a means of
increasing students' appreciation for the varied social,
psychological, theological and cultural contexts in which attitudes
to sexuality develop, the volume posits sexuality as a critical
element of teaching about religion in higher education. This book
will be of great interest to graduate and postgraduate students,
researchers, academics, and libraries in the fields of Religious
Studies, Religious Education, Gender & Sexuality, Religion
& Education, and Sociology of Religion.
Feminist Praxis against U.S. Militarism provides critical feminist
and womanist analyses of U.S. militarism that challenge the ongoing
U.S. neoliberal military-industrial complex and its multivalent
violence that destroys people's lives, especially women and other
vulnerable populations. It highlights the intentional critique of
U.S. militarism from feminist/womanist perspectives that seek to
show the ways in which gender, race/ethnicity, sexuality, and
violence intersect to threaten women's lives, especially women of
color's lives, and the broader environment upon which women's lives
are dependent. Most of all, this volume challenges the readers to
understand the U.S. as the warfare, counterterror, carceral state
and its devastating effects on the everyday lives of women,
especially women of color, locally, nationally, and globally. This
volume also helps readers understand the racialized gendered
impacts of U.S. militarism in conjunction with the ongoing global
economies of dispossession and militarized violence across the
borders of nation-states. Interrogating U.S. military interventions
in "other" countries can show how the U.S. War on Terror directly
affects U.S. "domestic" affairs and daily lives in the United
States.

Christian Ethics for a Digital Society looks at how we live in an
increasingly digital world. From sexting to hashtag activism like
the #metoo movement, technology has entered both our private and
public lives in a deep way. Far from hand-wringing about the
dangers of technology, Christian Ethics for a Digital Society
offers pragmatic wisdom on how to live thoughtfully today. Instead
of just worrying about the next technological gadget or app, it's
time we consider what Christianity has to offer a world
increasingly reimagined in a digital landscape. This book provides
a new perspective on how to assess digital technology use,
development, and expansion through a lens of Christian values. The
purpose of this book is to begin a conversation about the massive
ecosystem change that digital technologies push in our lives
through a focus on the ethics of everyday practices.
Talking with your child about sex can be scary "Sex + Faith"
helps parents incorporate their faith values with sexual
information so they can answer questions, discuss sexuality at each
stage of childhood, and show support of sexual differences. Section
one explains how faith relates to sexuality and the essential role
parents play in forming healthy, faithful, sexual children . The
second section designates a chapter for four age groupings of
children from infancy through high school. Each chapter explains
the biological and developmental issues of the age, answers
questions children tend to have, provides relevant Biblical and
faith stories helpful to discuss with children of that age, and
lists five to ten key educational issues for parents to keep in
mind. Shaded text boxes are interspersed throughout the book with
real life, practical questions that parents and children ask.
Expertly written by Kate Ott, "Sex + Faith" is an easy to use
reference guide for parents of kids of all ages.
