Summary

When most religious people are asking "Who should be allowed to marry?" Amie Martin changes the nature of the debate around human sexuality in the church and poses an entirely different question about cultural power: "Who should be presiding over weddings?" and "Why?" After exploring in-depth research about the role of Christian Church and clergy in weddings from Scripture, tradition, reason, and experience, both traditionalists and progressives will be challenged to think about this topic in new and informed ways.

Author Biography

Amie Martin is a thinker, mother, and ordained elder in the United Methodist Church. She has a unique way of challenging status quo and synthesizing scholarly research with practical suggestions for living out the mission of God in her context. She wants to see the church live into her full identity to be a sign and instrument of the restorative love of God in the world. She also co-founded The Grace Period, a nonprofit transitional housing organization in St. Charles County, Missouri.
