The Struggle for Inclusivity in Multicultural U.S. Protestant Congregations

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Intersectionality in Intentional Communities examines the practices of change in Protestant congregations and the work to replace dominating structures with liberating ones. Zerai argues that volitional communities such as these may provide a best-case scenario for how members find ways to create inclusive environments for LGBTIQ communities.
