Queer Clergy
History of Gay and Lesbian Ministry in American Protestantism
R.W. Holmen
I have been thinking a lot these days of our lesbian, gay, and bisexual sisters and brothers and supporters who have gone before us to bring us to this time and place. I wish that I knew more of their names. I wish I knew more of their stories. (Susan Kraemer in More Light Update)
Straight ally and author, Obie Holmen, names the names and tells the stories. Queer Clergy: A History of Gay and Lesbian Ministry in American Protestantism contains separate sections for five denominations (Methodists, Lutherans, Episcopalians, Presbyterians, and the United Church of Christ) but each section is woven into an overarching narrative reflecting the common paths and parallel journeys.
