Taking a Chance on God by John J Mcneill

The second book in John McNeill's pathbreaking trilogy for lesbian and gay Christians, Taking a Chance on God brings a gay perspective to fundamental Christian questions: How can we understand suffering and death? How can we overcome fear, anger, and guilt? What does it mean to love God? What gifts do we bring to the body of Christ?
John J. McNeill (1925-2015) was an ordained priest and practicing psychotherapist. In 1987, he was expelled from the Society of Jesus for refusing to cease his ministry to gay men and lesbians. He received a doctorate in philosophy from Louvain University in Belgium and taught philosophy and theology at Fordham University, Union Theological Seminary, and other institutions. McNeill was the author of several works on theology and sexuality, including Taking a Chance on God and Freedom, Glorious Freedom.
