Key writers and thinkers offer an informed, considered and constructive guide to a number of central questions, including: • Mike Higton on marriage, gender and Christian doctrine • Charlotte Metheun on what we can learn from the history of marriage • Ben Fulford on thinking about marriage with scripture • Julie Gittoes on the liturgical theology of marriage • John Bradbury on marriage as vocation • Brett Gray on reproduction and the body's grace • Susannah Cornwall on being faithful to our sexuate bodies • Rachel Muers on developing a contemporary theology of marriage and much more Reflecting a broad theological and eccesiological spectrum within the Christian tradition, Thinking Again About Marriage offers a vital resource for critical thinking and reflective practice.
