WHAT IS THE "GOOD NEWS" of the New Testament for the marginalized? Where are the stories of liberation for the oppressed and what do they say? The Subversive Gospel sifts through the New Testament for textual clues regarding the liberation of homosexuals, transsexuals, bisexuals, sex workers, the sick and physically challenged, and those oppressed by anti-Semitism, xenophobia, and racism. Moving through the books of the New Testament, each chapter briefly describes the author, community, and setting for the text being discussed, an outline for reading the book, and a careful textual examination through the lens of the liberation of an oppressed group. Tom Hanks provides a valuable and useful commentary for all students of the New Testament. He challenges readers to look at these books through different eyes, to see in the text those who commonly are overlooked in the world, and to understand that their story of "good news" is told in the scriptures.
