A New Creation

Sex and Gender in 'Faith, Sexism, and Justice: A Call to Action'

Abstract

In her essay, Mary Elise Lowe demonstrates that the social statement’s openness is grounded in Lutheran commitments to the diversity of creation, neighbor justice, and the body of Christ. She then contends that the document’s expansive welcome is informed by three significant shifts in the way theologians, scientists, and theorists view sex, gender, and sexuality.
