2019, 158 Pages

At A Glance: “The Gospel of Inclusion” advocates for the radical inclusion of 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals in the Christian church, providing a comprehensive analysis of biblical texts, cultural contexts, and modern social movements to underscore the Christian gospel’s call to celebrate human diversity as a reflection of God’s intention.

Overview: In “The Gospel of Inclusion: A Christian Case for LGBT+ Inclusion in the Church,” Brandan J. Robertson tackles the contentious issue of including sexual and gender minorities in church life. While acknowledging previous scholarship that has reinterpreted six key biblical passages regarding homosexuality, Robertson goes further. He argues that the Christian gospel fundamentally advocates for dismantling all oppressive systems and structures, advocating for a world that embraces the full diversity of human identity.

Robertson’s book examines the biblical texts and cultural contexts, aligning them with modern social movements to present a vision of the church that not only accepts but celebrates 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals as part of God’s creative design, promoting a message of radical inclusivity and love.
