For over five hundred years, Gypsies, Roma and Travellers have been persecuted, misrepresented, enslaved and even murdered in whatever land they reside, and there is a deep ignorance of the absolute centrality of religious conviction at the heart of GRT communities.Steven Horne's Gypsies and Jesus lights the touchpaper on the grace-filled, intimate and unheard core of GRT religiosity that is Traveller Theology. This is a field of study that has long been dominated by non-GRT voices. In this book Dr Horne attempts to take back the pen and reclaim a past and a future for Gypsies and Travellers.Gypsies and Jesus: A Traveller Theology identifies and threads cultural strands (beliefs and customs, narratives and histories, and rituals and traditions) from Gypsy and Traveller culture into a coherent message that speaks of collective piety and cultural purity. Testimonies from members of the GRT community develop this message further. All of these factors are supported with a biblical exegesis to produce an exciting, revelatory and at times sobering book that, for perhaps the first time, hands over the reins of Gypsy-Christian identity to Gypsies themselves.

LGBTQI people in the church have spent a long time being told what God expects of them and how they should behave. From prohibitions on who they might love or marry, to erasure and denial, the theological record is one in which LGBTQI people are far too often objectified and their lives seen as the property of others.In no other significant religious question are 'theological' arguments made that so clearly reject overwhelming scientific and experiential knowledge about the human person. This book seeks to find a better way to do theology - not about, but with and of LGBTQI people - taking insights from the sciences and personal narratives as it seeks to answer the question: 'What does human flourishing look like?'

My Theology:The world's leading Christian thinkers explain some of the principal tenets of their theological beliefs.'In one lifetime, the world we expected to live in has all but disappeared. "e;Belief"e; is reasoned, not recited.'The God that we were brought up on is not big enough to be God, writes Joan Chittister. To be both religious and spiritual, modernity must be able to absorb the notion of a cosmic and evolving God and society. Old ideas of who is in charge, who is superior and whose theology is paramount is in a state of flux.Despite this uncertain state of the world, Sr Joan finds that she believes more now than she ever really understood; a new idea of God is emerging which is greater than the sum of all we have been previously taught.
