Editorial Reviews
Review
"In this invigorating dive into scripture... Paige... reads the Bible in provocative ways... brings to the foreground lesser-known biblical figures... surprising yet plausible... strong and imaginative... This is a treasure chest of resources for those interested in ways transgender individuals can live faithful to God and to one's self."
Publisher's Weekly
"This is the book that we need."
The Rev. Terri Stewart
United Methodist Alliance for Transgender Inclusion (UMATI)
"The most exhaustive look at gender non-conforming/trans identities in the Bible that I have seen to date. Informative & Accessible."
Peterson Toscano
Transfigurations: Transgressing Gender in the Bible
"I am excited to revisit familiar characters and narratives with a new OtherWise lens. This is an extraordinary gift to the trans community and to those, whether transgender or cisgender, who wish to go deeper in the texts to see those of us who have been hidden, erased, and/or disparaged."
The Rev. Louis Mitchell
Executive Director of Transfaith
"...a truly incredible book. Mx Chris' writing is clear, elegant, and prophetic, and the book's intertextual readings of scripture and popular culture are very insightful. This book beautifully answers the deepest possible question: how can we imagine and practice our spirituality in ways that are truly just and liberatory, especially as it concerns our gender."
Cleis Abeni/Upāsikā tree
Transgender elder
"...a wonderful resource... This is a faith text that CANNOT be ignored."
Rev. Shanea D. Leonard
Associate for Gender & Racial Justice for the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.)

I've read many, many books & articles on trans theology (many of which are cited in this one), and this is my favorite of all of them. OtherWise Christian compiles decades' worth of scholarship and rewords it so that 1) the language reflects contemporary terms for the trans community and 2) it's possible for a non-academic reader to understand what's being said!
On top of gathering so much good stuff into one volume, Mx Paige also adds their own voice and insight to our long beautiful line of trans (and OtherWise!) theologians. I'm so grateful for this book.
Reviewed in the United States on November 12, 2019
Perhaps one of the greatest assets of this book is that it teaches people like myself to defend ourselves against those who are determined to use dogma, theology, and twisted scripture to discriminate against us.
It's a marvelous book I'm thrilled to have.
