Building Bridges: Letha Dawson Scanzoni and Friends

Letha Dawson Scanzoni changed the landscape of American evangelicalism through her groundbreaking work on the gospel-based intersection of gender and LGBTQ justice. She coauthored two of the first books that support womens equality and LGBTQ rights with the Bible: All Were Meant to Be and Is the Homosexual My Neighbor? In all her work Scanzoni applies the liberating message of Jesus to women and to people who have been marginalized by church and society because of sexual orientation. Building Bridges combines an exploration of the life and work of Letha Dawson Scanzoni with stories of people she continues to empower through her writing and the Evangelical & Ecumenical Womens Caucus - Christian Feminism Today an organization she cofounded. This book illustrates her growing influence as she continues her prophetic collaboration with new generations. In addition it provides resources for churches as they build bridges for their ministries of liberation justice and peace.
