A Groundbreaking History Of Evangelicalism And Homosexuality In The United Statesevangelicals Claim That Their Opposition To Homosexuality Is An Inherent Feature Of Their Faith, Rooted In Their Unchanging Beliefs About The Bible. Most Scholars, Journalists, And Observers Have Accepted This Account; In Born Again Queer, William Stell Upends It. Arguing That The Antigay Majority In Evangelicalism Has Been Less Dominant And More Vulnerable Than Previously Thought, Stell Describes A Network Of Authors, Ministers, And ProfessorsAll Veterans Of Major Evangelical InstitutionsWho Worked In The 1970S And 1980S To Persuade Christians That Their Churches Should Affirm The Relationships And Ministries Of Gay And Lesbian Members. By The Late 1970S, Some Even Thought That These Activists Might Shape The Future Of Evangelicalism.Of Course, That Speculation Proved Mistaken, And The Antigay Evangelical Majority Eventually Overpowered The GayAffirming Minority. StellS History Of The Rise And Fall Of Evangelical Gay Activism Shines A Light On This Largely Forgotten Chapter In American Evangelicalism. Drawing On Extensive Archival Research And Interviews, Stell Documents The Work Of Four Prominent Activists: The Founder Of A Predominantly Lgbtq+ Denomination Called The Metropolitan Community Churches, The Leader Of A Gay Advocacy Organization Called Evangelicals Concerned, And The Evangelical Feminist Coauthors Of The Influential Book Is The Homosexual My Neighbor? By Recovering The Successes Of Evangelical Gay Activists And The Struggles Of Their Opponents, StellS Account Transforms How We Think About Evangelicalism, How We Talk About The Culture Wars, And How We Approach Both Religion In Queer Movements And Queer Activism In Religious Movements.
