My decision is final, everything has to be decent and legal etc.

Throughout the history of Christianity, lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender ( LGBT or queer ) people have been condemned as unrepentant sinners who are in dire need of God s saving grace. As a result of this condemnation, LGBT people have been subjected to great spiritual, emotional and physical abuse and violence. This issue has taken on a particular urgency in light of the horrific string of suicides over the last year of young LGBT people who were subjected to harassment and bullying by their classmates. Cheng argues that people need to be liberated from the traditional legal model of thinking about sin and grace as a violation of divine and natural laws in which grace is understood as the strength to refrain from violating such laws. Rather Cheng proposes a Christological model based upon the theologies of Irenaeus, Bonaventure and Barth, in which sin and grace are defined in terms of what God has done for us in Jesus Christ. This book will serve as a useful resource for all people who struggle to make sense of the traditional Christian doctrines of sin and grace in the context of the 21st century.

Art that dares to show Jesus as gay or female has often been censored or even destroyed. Now for the first time such beautiful, powerful, sometimes shocking images are gathered for all to see. Packed with full-page color illustrations, this eye-opening collection features a diverse group of eleven contemporary artists who work both inside and outside the church. They present the gay Jesus, the woman Christ and other cutting-edge Christian images. Their art respects the teachings of Jesus and frees the minds of viewers. Here the artists tell the stories behind the images. A lively introduction puts the new genre into political and historical context, exploring issues of blasphemy and artistic freedom.

WANDERING BETWEEN
TWO WORLDS
By Anita Mathias

In these wide-ranging lyrical essays, Anita Mathias writes, in lush, lovely prose, of her naughty Catholic childhood in Jamshedpur, India; her large, eccentric family in Mangalore, a sea-coast town converted by the Portuguese in the sixteenth century; her rebellion and atheism as a teenager in her Himalayan boarding school, run by German missionary nuns, St. Mary's Convent, Nainital; and her abrupt religious conversion after which she entered Mother Teresa's convent in Calcutta as a novice. Later rich, elegant essays explore the dualities of her life as a writer, mother, and Christian in the United States-- Domesticity and Art, Writing and Prayer, and the experience of being "an alien and stranger" as an immigrant in America, sensing the need for roots.

MadPriest is Appealing

The administrator of this site is the Reverend Jonathan Hagger (a.k.a. MadPriest). He is a Church of England priest but he receives no salary from any church or any other employer. At present his ministry consists entirely of his work at OCICBW...

However, he likes to eat occasionally and his blogs cost quite a bit of money to run. So, in true Anglican style a collection plate is being made available for your donations (via PayPal).

You will never be asked to pledge or tithe but a regular monthly contribution from you would give him security and peace of mind.

You do not need to have a PayPal account to subscribe or donate via the buttons below.

CHIN WAG @ 0CICBW...

Chin Wag @ OCICBW... is a private

discussion and gossip site for regular,

trustworthy commenters at OCICBW....

As it demands a commitment from its

members to engage in conversation it

would probably not be of interest to

those OCICBW... readers who prefer to

remain anonymous or silent.

There are two types of membership at

Chin Wag @ OCICBW... The first is

that of READER which allows you to

read the posts and comment on them.

The second is that of AUTHOR which

gives the READER access plus the

ability to write, publish and edit your

own posts for discussion. Obviously,

the latter requires more time and

commitment than the former.

If you would like to be considered for

either type of membership please email

me and tell me your pseudonym, your

blog address (if you have one), your real

name, your town/city and county/state

(but not street address or postcode/zip).

And, of course, tell me the type of

membership that you are applying for.

I hope to see you over there.
