From an interdenominational group of preachers and scholars, a queer commentary to address recent concerns around LGBTQ+ rights.

This preaching resource features commentaries on every Sunday and feast day reading in the Revised Common Lectionary from an interdenominational group of scholars and homileticians. Offering queer interpretations of biblical texts, the series will appeal to scholars of queer theology and will support preachers in crafting sermons that convey a message of liberation, rather than one that reinforces the power structures of the world. 


A Queer Lectionary features commentators from a variety of liturgical traditions, including clergy and scholars from the Episcopal Church, United Church of Christ, African Methodist Episcopal Church, Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, Metropolitan Community Churches, and beyond. Written to enable preachers to engage with every assigned text, each volume features sermons that respond to every lesson in each lectionary entry.
