Jeff Hood-priest, public theologian, activist, and one of the nation's most outspoken anti-death penalty voices-has taken theology out of the academy and into the streets, execution chambers, hospital rooms, post-genocide landscapes, and the forgotten corners institutional religion often ignores.
This landmark omnibus gathers eleven foundational works (2013-2023) that together form a daring, cohesive vocation of public theology. Hood operates as prophet (naming harm in God's name), priest (staying present in suffering), and witness (testifying unflinchingly to what is actually there). The result is theology that is dangerous, accountable, embodied, and relentlessly honest.
Included in this volume:
- The Prosperity Gospel & Malpractice (2013) - A fierce prophetic takedown of metaphysical and televangelist prosperity teachings as spiritual malpractice.
- The Complicated Legacy of Cesar Chavez (2013) - Honest reckoning with a hero's flaws on immigration and labor justice.
- Toxic Masculinity (2013) - Personal and systemic critique of evangelical men's movements from the inside.
- Tales from the Crypt: Verbatim from Clinical Pastoral Education (2014) - Raw, unfiltered hospital and psych-unit pastoral encounters.
- 6 Days in Guatemala: A Journal (2015) - On-site reflection after evangelical complicity in Mayan genocide.
- The Basilica of the Swinging Dicks (2016) - Prophetic satirical novella finding the sacred in the profane.
- High Country Theology (2021) - Wilderness revelations that strip away sentimentality.
- Out of My Head: Freed Thoughts (2021) - Unedited late-night theological stream-of-consciousness.
- The Gospel of Mary: A Modern Commentary (2022) - Reclaiming Mary's suppressed authority for silenced voices today.
- The Is of Is (2022) - Philosophical theology of tangibility, presence, and refusal of abstraction.
- Science Fiction Theology (2023) - Speculative stories probing coerced faith, compelled salvation, and liberation under invisible chains.
Hood's work has been called haunting, prophetic, and unflinching. It refuses hagiography, tidy systems, and comfortable distance. Instead, it insists that real theology is tested in rooms where people die, suffer, resist, and hope-and it must hold there or it is not theology at all.
Whether you're drawn to liberation theology, queer theology, anti-capitalist critique, death-penalty resistance, feminist reclamation of scripture, speculative spiritual fiction, or radical pastoral honesty, this collection offers a sustained vision of a public theology that shows up, sees clearly, speaks truthfully, and stays.
