Whilst things have arguably moved on in the last decade, the church continues to discriminate against people on the grounds of disability, economic power, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, learning disability, mental health, neurodiversity, or sexuality.Drawing from ten years of lectures and essays from leading figures associated with the movement such as Loretta Minghella, Anthony Reddie, and Michael Jaggesar, this book marks the 20th anniversary of the Inclusive Church network. Together the essays offer a unique and inspiring account of what an inclusive church is, why it matters, and where it is going.

"This powerful book understands that the personal is political and the political is theological. Its authors offer a challenge to power and privilege in the church, daring to imagine God’s justice in its place. Their celebration of how far we have come, after 20 years of Inclusive Church, is tempered by the truth of how far we still have to journey before we are a church that honours the God of the margins, a church that has room for all God’s people. “The work is not finished,” in Fiona MacMillan’s words, “but something has begun”.
