Abstract

Women's and genderqueer bodies, lives and voices are often ignored, manipulated and violated. This thesis seeks to address this reality. First, it listens to the witness of women and genderqueer people about their own complex bodies, identitites, and experiences, treating these as primary theological text. Second, it employs a matrix for theological reflection, engaging the positive, negative, creative, and transformative aspects of embodiment and sexuality in order to create a liberative, eschatological vision. Finally, it utilizes movement building theory to suggest how such an eschatological vision is critical to the task of transformative work and ministry in this historical moment.
