Spanning across Asia, Africa, and Latin America, we witness the emergence of vibrant queer faith-based communities, each with its unique context and history. The perspectives included in this anthology form a rich tapestry that celebrates the diversity within the Global South's queer communities and ministries. Through their insights, the contributors demonstrate the multifaceted ways in which queer ministry challenges and transforms theological understanding and religious practices. Each chapter delves into critical issues related to liturgy, sacraments, pastoral rites, and the personal journeys undertaken by these ministers to foster pastoral queer theologies. Contributors explore the intricate relationship between faith and sexuality, examine the role of rituals in the daily lives of queer believers, and shed light on the challenges they face within the political structures of religious institutions. The narratives highlight both the challenges and innovative mechanisms employed to combat ingrained LGBTIQ+ phobia. They also showcase how communities engage in interreligious and multi-religious dialogue and rituals, while honoring faith and activism, and how prophetic ministries challenge oppressive discourses and colonial performativities. This invaluable resource is of immense interest to academics, religious leaders, and anyone passionate about the study of queer theologies, Asian, African, and Latin American Christianity, as well as ecclesiastical and liturgical issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 480g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032372433\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44668046967034,"sku":"9781032372433","price":151.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1697822072317_book.jpg?v=1697968652","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/queer-ministers-voices-from-the-global-south-a-burning-fire-in-my-bones-9781032372433","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
