Queer & Christian: Embracing Faith and Identity

Brandan Robertson’s Queer & Christian is a powerful guide for those navigating the intersection of LGBTQ+ identity and Christian faith. Drawing from his personal journey, including facing conversion therapy and public outing, Robertson challenges the idea that being queer and Christian is a contradiction.

The book explores key themes like reconciling faith and sexuality, reclaiming biblical texts often used against queer people, and highlighting LGBTQ+ representation in scripture. It also offers practical advice on coming out, dating, and engaging with non-affirming Christians.

Queer & Christian is an inspiring resource for queer Christians and allies, showing how faith and identity can coexist. It’s a must-read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of inclusion and love within Christianity.

The foreword for Queer & Christian was written by The Right Reverend Gene Robinson, a trailblazing figure in modern Christianity. As the first openly gay bishop in a major Christian denomination, Robinson’s historic consecration in 2003 sparked both controversy and progress within the Episcopal Church and beyond. His courageous leadership and advocacy for LGBTQ+ inclusion have made him a symbol of hope and resilience for queer Christians worldwide. Robinson’s personal journey and unwavering faith bring a profound depth to the foreword, setting the tone for Brandan Robertson’s powerful exploration of faith and identity.
