di Peter Carlson (Autore)

Seabury Books, 2027

A groundbreaking compendium of sermons that provide queer and inclusive readings of the Sundays and major feasts of Year C in the Revised Common Lectionary. This pioneering work—the third and concluding volume in the series—features incisive commentaries on the Revised Common Lectionary that provide inspiration for writing sermons with a message of liberation. An ideal resource for teaching biblical and queer studies, this volume features contributions from clergy and scholars from a variety of liturgical traditions, including the Episcopal Church, United Church of Christ, Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, Metropolitan Community Churches, and more. PRAISE FOR A QUEER LECTIONARY - YEAR A “ ...Don't read this commentary if you aren't willing to be challenged to action as well as engage with texts as texts. This is scholarly work, but it's not merely for the classroom, and it's genuinely accessible.” - Anglican and Episcopal History “Groundbreaking…transgressive in [inviting] us to transgress boundaries, comfort zones, and niceties to encounter strangers, the queer, and the unknown.” - Kwok Pui-lan, Distinguished Scholar at Episcopal Divinity School, Past President of the American Academy of Religion, and author of The Anglican Tradition from a Postcolonial Perspective “In an era when pulpits pander to power and scrub sermons clean of danger and grit, AQueer Lectionary dares real life—where our bodies bleed, laugh, grieve, resist, and rise… We need this voice.” —The Rev. Jeff R. Johnson, Bishop of the Sierra Pacific Synod, Evangelical Lutheran Church in America "Carlson is one more critical voice who is reading and telling Gospel-stories from the so-called margins, embracing his and our 'otherness,' and providing a fresh, bracing take on ancient, universal stories of faith." —Rev. Dr. Brett Mitchell, Pastor, La Mesa Presbyterian Church, Albuquerque, NM, Author of Practicing Pilgrimage "These pages are filled with stories and queer reflections—at once familiar, strange, and surprising—that remain fiercely rooted in a commitment to proclaim, again and again, the divine invitation to “come and see that the Lord is good” (Psalm 34:8)." —Rolf R. Nolasco, Jr., ThD, Rueben P. Job Professor of Spiritual Formation & Pastoral Theology, and Director of the Job Institute for Spiritual Formation "This Queer Lectionary is a great addition to any pastor's library, containing multiple sermons that address current U.S. situations and relevant queer issues. Accessible and colloquial, you don't have to be an academic to appreciate its profound insights." —Rev Lis Valle-Ruiz, PhD, Associate Professor of Homiletics and Worship and Director of Community Worship Life, McCormick Theological Seminary PRAISE FOR A QUEER LECTIONARY - YEAR B "Read it not just to help shape what is said from the pulpit, but to embody, in the realest sense, the glorious life of faith in our radical, queer God." - Rev’d Canon Grace Thomas, Canon Missioner at Manchester Cathedral “Enter into the queer time of God, who enters into human life and human flesh to transform our lives and bend us toward common good... These homilies speak truth to experience and peace to all." - The Rev. Dr. Colleen Windham-Hughes, Rector, Pacific Lutheran Theological Seminary of California Lutheran University
