Marcella Althaus-Reid (1952-2009)

Kirsty Ann Mabbott

Marcella Althaus-Reid specialised in liberation, feminist and queer theology and was the first woman professor of theology at New College, University of Edinburgh.

Althaus-Reid believed that ‘queer’ theology doesn’t only represent the LGBT*+ community[1], but creates a space for resistance to all ‘standardised regimes’ of church and state through re-creation, re-imagination and re-visioning of how things are and could be.

We continue our series looking at members' favourite theologians. Here, SCM member Shanika Ranasinghe explains why St Teresa of Avila was such a vital figure in the history of the Church.

Gustavo Gutiérrez (1928- )

Revd Chris Howson

Few theologians have shaped the course of history in the way that Gustavo Gutiérrez has. His life of service and dedication to the poor has inspired millions of people, from Venezuelan presidents and lowly priests in Sunderland.

Canon Dr Jeremy Duff is the vicar of a small but growing church in a deeply deprived part of Widnes. He has an established teaching and writing ministry, and his most recent book Peter's Teaching: The Message of Mark's Gospel was published by the Bible Reading Fellowship in 2015. This is the full version of his article that was first published in issue 151 of Movement magazine, the Community Issue.
