by Brianne Bell Jacobs (Author)

This book presents a Roman Catholic theology arguing God's grace abounds beyond the gender binary. In response to the sex abuse crisis, clericalism, and rigid gender complementarity, the author offers a vision of theological anthropology and ecclesiology that affirms the holiness and fecundity of all bodies across sexual difference.
