Her creativity has recently blossomed into a new book: “<a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/1936912686/?tag=jesusinloveor-20" rel="nofollow">The Gendered Pulpit.”</a> She uses her experience as a lesbian Baptist minister, artist and scholar to provide practical methods for including women and LGBTQ people in worship and preaching. Her theological reflections will inspire justice-loving spiritual communities. It is divided into four sections—gender, sexuality, dance, and disorder—and the author’s entry point is personal narrative. Your comment reminds me to add this to the body of this post.<br /><br />After we did this interview, Angela honored me by painting my portrait! You can see it and learn more about it at this link:<br /><br /><a href="http://jesusinlove.blogspot.com/2012/10/artist-paints-portrait-of-kittredge.html" rel="nofollow">http://jesusinlove.blogspot.com/2012/10/artist-paints-portrait-of-kittredge.html</a>Kittredge Cherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02617858676733169316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29680163.post-12002553749683604712013-05-16T11:24:17.191-07:002013-05-16T11:24:17.191-07:00Just read this and am bookmarking to share with ot...Just read this and am bookmarking to share with others in the future! I remember Angela's name from my time at the GTU. We were contemporaries but in different divisions. What a creative person she is. And I liked the way you interviewed her! Thanks very much.

The work is colorful and a bit whimsical, but it is still powerful and empowering. I of course love the inclusion of Mary Daly! And I too saw Mary for the first time at that same AAR session - I almost thought I was in the wrong room at first since I didn't see anyone on the raised panel platform. She literally took my breath away that day...anyway, thank you both for the beauty and power of art that you share with us all.Xochitlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11975473422094912747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29680163.post-50700057704666413392012-03-01T15:36:20.617-08:002012-03-01T15:36:20.617-08:00This is a very beautiful and meaningful blot to be...This is a very beautiful and meaningful blot to begin Women's History Month.
