When most religious people are asking "Who should be allowed to marry?" Amie Martin changes the nature of the debate around human sexuality in the church and poses an entirely different question about cultural power: "Who should be presiding over weddings?" and "Why?" After exploring in-depth research about the role of Christian Church and clergy in weddings from Scripture, tradition, reason, and experience, both traditionalists and progressives will be challenged to think about this topic in new and informed ways.
