“Queer Mormon Theology: An Introduction” is officially available on Amazon and I have been overwhelmed with the interest, support, and enthusiasm for my work. I’m not sure what I was expecting, but the responses have exceeded my wildest expectations. It is comforting to know that people are reading my book in classrooms, public libraries, and chapels across the country by bishops, stake presidents, seminary teachers, academics, and professors. It’s been wonderful to see people who worship within the walls of the Church taking interest in a book written by someone who no longer attends services regularly.

I think it’s important to clarify that I wrote “Queer Mormon Theology” outside the walls of the Church. I am a faithful member, yes, but I am faithful to the Gospel, the Body of Christ, Mormonism, and our scriptures. I am not faithful to flawed institutions, cissexist and heterosexist handbook policies, or discursive theologies predicated on homogenized, white, androcentric, cis-het supremacy.
