This Is My Body

Much has been said and written about trans people by theologians and Church leaders, while little has been heard from trans Christians themselves. As a step towards redressing the balance, This Is My Body offers a grounded reflection on people’s experience of gender dissonance that involves negotiating the boundaries between one’s identity and religious faith, as well as a review of the most up-to-date theological, cultural and scientific literature. This book is a key pastoral resource and stands as a vital contribution towards the Church becoming more inclusive, understanding and welcoming of trans people.
