Reviews for The Oxford Handbook of Theology, Sexuality, and Gender (Oxford Handbooks)
[T]his collection is authoritative and exhaustive ... It has genuinely 'go-to' chapters on queer theory and disabled theology, and skilled essays on Christianity and historical context ... It explores how sex and gender are fundamental to understandings of God, community, and self. I see the IOxford Handbook becoming a standard.
