Using the lenses of practical theology, ecclesiology, Queer theology, and gender studies, Brandon Thomas Crowley examines the heteronormative histories, theologies, morals, values, and structures of Black churches and how their longstanding assumptions can be challenged. Drawing on the experiences of several historically Black churches that became open and affirming (ONA), <em>Queering Black Churches</em> explores how historically Black churches have queered their congregations. Crowley examines the similarities and differences in their approaches and synthesizes them into a methodology called Black ecclesial Queering: a theoretical analysis and a practical method of queering that centers on the lived experiences of Black Queer folks seeking to subvert the puritanical ideologies of Black churches. Crowley argues for a systematic approach to dismantling homophobia within African American congregations that moves beyond surface-level allyship toward actual structural renovation. With its groundbreaking documentation of ONA congregations and its practical proposals for change, this book will be a valuable resource for students, scholars, and clergy alike.</p>...4406061Queering Black Churches368387https://www.gandhi.com.mx/queering-black-churches-9780197662649/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/4306538/image.jpg?v=638446626992200000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20239780197662649_W3siaWQiOiI0NDgzZjc5Yy1jMjEzLTQ3NmUtOWNlNi00MDE1M2U4N2E3ODgiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjQwMCwiZGlzY291bnQiOjIwLCJzZWxsaW5nUHJpY2UiOjM4MCwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjQtMTItMDFUMDA6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d9780197662649_<p><em>Queering Black Churches</em> provides a systematic approach for dismantling heteronormativity within African American congregations.
