Alison, James, Faith beyond resentment
Widely acclaimed for his work examining the fundamental themes in Catholic theology, in Faith without Resentment James Alison offers an account of Christianity that is moving, liberating, and deeply personal, yet rooted in Catholic tradition. This is not a book of gay theology but, much more daringly, of Catholic theology from a gay perspective, addressing both those who are not gay and those who are not Catholic
