What if transgender people aren’t a threat to faith-but the prophets we’ve been waiting for?Christianity has largely taught us that there are only two genders, man and woman, with one created to lead and one to serve. Transgender, nonbinary, and queer people have been blamed for society’s moral decline, while churches uphold structures proven to enable gendered violence and inequality.What if the Bible reveals a different story about gender and humanity?In Gender Expansive Faith, Steff Fenton offers a bold and tender invitation into a Christianity beyond binary norms-one that celebrates gender diverse people as leaders of God’s expansive justice, equality and non-violence. This book combines Steff’s tender personal experience through memoir, their extensive research of history, biblical interpretation and theology, as well as practical education and guidance. People who would benefit:Curious Christians hoping to better understand the transgender experience and more confidently engage this conversation;Pastors, parents and supporters of transgender loved ones wanting greater clarity, compassion, and courage;Queer and trans people of faith seeking hope and belonging;Exvangelicals, Christian feminists and interested progressives looking for language to deconstruct patriarchal theology.Through fresh readings of Scripture-including Jesus’ affirmation of eunuchs in Matthew 19-Fenton shows how trans and gender diverse people reflect the Divine. You’ll explore:Biblical descriptions of gender diversity;How patriarchal theology created the gender binary;The basics of sex, gender, and identity-broken down clearly and kindly;Common questions about sports, bathrooms, and women’s spaces;How to support the trans and queer people in your church and family.Whether you’re affirming and want to grow deeper, or questioning what you’ve been taught about gender and faith, this book offers a loving path forward.Read this book if you want to expand your faith and discover that trans people aren’t on the margins of God’s story, they’re right at the heart of it.
