Radical Love : An Introduction to Queer Theology<\/em>\u00a0was first published in English in 2011;\u00a0 the first introductory text book on the subject of queer theology.\u00a0 Cheng\u00a0 provides a genealogy of queer theology from the 1950s to today. He explains the themes of queer theology using the ecumenical creeds as a general structure, topics include revelation, God, Trinity, creation, Jesus Christ, sin, grace, Holy Spirit, church, sacraments, and most importantly, as seen through the lenses of LGBT theologians. \u00a0Cheng asserts in his book that,\u00a0 “radical love is a love so extreme that it dissolves our existing boundaries that separate us from other people, that separate s from preconceived notions of sexuality and gender identity, or that separates us from God.”<\/em><\/p>\n Patrick S. Cheng\u00a0is an Episcopal priest, theologian, and attorney. He works for a national agency of the Episcopal Church, and serves as an associate priest at\u00a0The Church of the Transfiguration<\/a>\u00a0in New York City. He also teaches at\u00a0Chicago Theological Seminary<\/a>\u00a0as an Affiliated Associate Professor of Theology. Patrick is the author or co-editor of four books, including\u00a0Radical Love<\/a><\/em>\u00a0(2011),\u00a0From Sin to Amazing Grace<\/a><\/em>\u00a0(2012), and\u00a0Rainbow Theology<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>(2013).<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n The author interweaves queer theory with the genealogy of queer theology, and<\/p>\n also gives an accurate discourse of queer theology\u00a0 in light of the traditional Christian doctrines. Patrick\u00a0 has achieved in bringing the readers into the rich and colorful world of queer theology!<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Patrick\u00a0 is a renowned Asian queer theologian who has advocated for LGBTIQ equal rights in North America for many years.\u00a0 I hope his book is a helpful\u00a0 resource for Chinese churches and society, and also serves as a support and encouragement to queer Chinese.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n This book is a gem for Chinese on the topic of queer theology.\u00a0 As readers, I hope you agree with me that we are all queers who share similar struggles but also the same hope. Let us join together and work for the reconciliation in the world especially the Church.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" New Book: Radical Love : An Introduction to Queer Theology (Chinese Edition) Author: Patrick S.
