Deon K Johnson, Bishop, Episcopal Diocese of Missouri

«Margie has wrapped her arms and lived experience around a difficult and sensitive subject: the Bible and human identity. With the expertise of a master teacher, compassion of a mother, and wisdom of a well-formed biblical scholar, Margie invites young people and all young at heart to encounter the wideness of God's mercy and their beloved worthiness by queer-ing the lens through which we read scripture.»

Lisa Kimball, Vice President for Lifelong Learning, Virginia Theological Seminary

«Thanks be to God for Margie Baker and this Bible study! This is the Bible study I wish I had as a teen and one I'll be using with my own teens as well as teenagers across the country. It is an essential resource for such a time as this.»

Traci Smith, Author, Faithful Families Series

«"God, Gospel, and Gender is critical reading for anyone who works with, cares for, or loves a young person in the Church today. Theology, biblical studies, and gender studies meet in this carefully crafted resource meant for Christian educators.»

Jeffrey W Mello, Bishop, The Episcopal Church in Connecticut

«

"An uplifting, pedagogically sound, and accessible Bible Study for teens that gently offers expansive perspectives on Holy Scripture and identity. The author wisely avoids an adversarial attitude towards previous interpretations and instead uses the best of traditional Christian theology to invite the readers to reflect positively and creatively on the Word of God."
