Author Description

The essays in this volume of the Bulletin of Ecclesial Theology are drawn from the papers presented at the October 2012 and June 2013 theological symposia hosted by the Center for Pastor Theologians. These two symposia brought together evangelical clergy from across denominational lines, with a view to exploring the topics of gender, sexuality, marriage, and sexual ethics-primarily through an interaction with John Paul II's Male and Female He Created Them: A Theology of the Body. Contributors include Matthew Mason, Gerald Hiestand, Owen Strachan, Christopher Bechtel, and David Morlan. Book reviews in this volume likewise focus on works associated with the themes of sexuality, marriage, and gender.
