Considering the reality of the LGBTQ+ population from a theological perspective requires, first, to be sensitized by their pains and conflicts, as well as to recognize their talents, contributions, and possibilities. It is necessary to overcome stigmas that, for a long time, have built sexualized and jocular conceptions of this population that, even with great difficulty, achieve greater visibility. Far from being merely abstract, Theology and the LGBTQ+ Community recognizes a reality that concerns the concrete lives of many people who are not always welcomed by the Christian community. The purpose of this book is to encourage the pouring of oil and wine on human wounds and to collaborate for the progress of doctrine. Our words can save or destroy lives. The originality of this book is that it brings together both an introduction to the issue of LGBTQ+ ministry, which for many is very complex, and an overview of history, the Bible, and the teaching of the Church, seeking ways of inclusion and having the support of an important ecclesiastical authority. Luís Corrěa Lima, SJ, holds a doctorate in history and is a professor of theology at the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro. His work focuses on history of the Catholic Church. He conducts research on church history, modernity, and sexual and gender diversity, and has published several texts and articles on these topics. For many years has been carrying out an apostolate with the LGBTQ+ community. +
