Adrian Thatcher is Visiting Professor in the Department of Theology and Religion at the University of Exeter. He was formerly Professorial Research Fellow at the University of Exeter (2004-2011), and Professor of Applied Theology at the University of St Mark and John, Plymouth (1995-2004). His publications include Redeeming Gender (OUP, 2016), Making Sense of Sex (SPCK, 2012), and God, Sex, and Gender (Wiley Blackwell, 2011).

[T]his collection is authoritative and exhaustive ... It has genuinely 'go-to' chapters on queer theory and disabled theology, and skilled essays on Christianity and historical context ... It explores how sex and gender are fundamental to understandings of God, community, and self. I see the IOxford Handbook becoming a standard.

• 1. METHODS; 2. WHAT THEOLOGIANS NEED TO KNOW; 3. SEXUALITY AND GENDER IN THE BIBLICAL WORLD; 4. SEXUALITY AND GENDER IN CHRISTIAN TRADITION; 5. CONTROVERSIES WITHIN THE CHURCH; 6. INTER-RELIGIOUS CONVERSATIONS; 7. CONCEPTS AND ISSUES; 8. SEXUAL THEOLOGIES FOR ALL PEOPLE
