Incomprehensible Presences: On the Blessings of Not Fitting Binary Categories

Abstract: This essay argues that trans and nonbinary people's experiences of not fitting traditional gender categories based upon them can empower us to develop new understandings and conceptions of divinity and divine-human relationships, offering autobiographical examples of the relation between my own transgender experiences and my work in trans theology.
