A Queer Christmas

di Jeff Hood (Autore)

New Theology School Press, 2026

A Queer Christmas by Jeff Hood is a bold, heartfelt retelling of the Nativity story, transplanted to the heart of contemporary Texas. In Denton County—amid live oaks, barns, migrant fields, and the quiet streets of small towns—God breaks through in wild, uncontainable ways. This is no sanitized holiday tale: here, the divine is explicitly queer, disruptive, and fiercely on the side of the outcast, the too-much, the too-loud, the too-alive. Follow two devoted men, Bob and Tommy, who receive a glittering angelic visitation and welcome a child of promise into their home. Witness Mary and Josie, queer women navigating love, labor, and exile as they birth Jesus in a humble barn. Watch migrant workers gaze up from cold earth to see a sky ablaze with light, then run toward the miracle. Journey with a family across deserts, fleeing danger, and find an old dreamer who waits decades for recognition. Through these interwoven stories, Hood reclaims the gospel for those pushed to the margins—queer people, immigrants, the forgotten, the defiant. Set against the backdrop of Texas politics and rigid norms, the narrative celebrates queerness not as an add-on but as the very essence of God's liberating, boundary-shattering love. A Queer Christmas is for anyone who has ever felt too much for the world, yet knows deep down they were made exactly right. It is tender, provocative, glitter-dusted theology wrapped in a Texas-sized miracle. Read it slowly. Let it argue with you. Let it reach you.
