Description

Explore a profound exploration of faith and identity in Toxic Shame in the Church: LGBT+ Christians at the Edges of Belonging. Published by SCM Press, this book uses an autoethnographic approach to examine the impact of institutional shaming. The author shares personal experiences as a gay woman and former priest to provide a unique perspective on the intersection of sexuality and religion. By drawing on practical theologies of shame and Christian anthropology, the text challenges traditional views on sin and human nature. It moves away from harmful religious structures to propose a person-centered model based on unconditional love and positive self-regard. This book is a vital resource for understanding how religious institutions contribute to shame and how individuals can find a path toward healing. Whether you are looking for academic insight or personal connection, this work offers a way toward self-acceptance for those who have felt marginalized by faith-based shaming. It provides a necessary critique of traditional theological perspectives while offering a roadmap for spiritual and emotional recovery.
