This book shows how Christian doctrines of creation and personhood respond to and are reframed by variant gender and gender transition. It offers a positive, non-oppositional account of gender transition not framed as deficit. It takes seriously trans people's self-understandings and analyses their implications for Christian theology and ethics.
