Ruach's dance

What does it mean to transport the methodology and insights of feminist liberation theology into another venue? Specifically, can my faith community, Metropolitan Community Church, benefit from a theology of liberation constructed using feminist liberation theology as a model? I believe the answer is an unqualified “YES!” I came to the Episcopal Divinity School to study theology from within my own context and praxis of Metropolitan Community Church; and I hoped to begin to construct a liberation theology arising from the shared experiences and lives of sexual minority Christians. While I have been doing academic theology at the seminary, I have returned to my own community of praxis and support weekend after weekend, journeying with the community of MCC in the Mountains. This thesis, then, sits at the intersection of a theology of the academy and a lived communal theology. – Abstract.
