Theodore Wesley Jennings Jr.[1][2] (born 1942–2020), also known as Ted Jennings, was an American theologian and Methodist minister. He was Professor of Biblical and Constructive Theology at the United Church of Christ's Chicago Theological Seminary, where he had previously served as Acting Academic Dean.[3] Jennings gained a notoriety for his work on ritual studies,[4] the Messianic politics of Pauline discourse, and theological engagement with the work of Dietrich Bonhoeffer[5] and Jacques Derrida.
Jennings' theology related to LGBT matters was welcomed in progressive circles,[6] but was cast as outright heretical by conservative theologians such as R. Albert Mohler, a Southern Baptist theologian and minister.[7] This opprobrium also appeared when he published across ecumenical aisles, such as when he was called a heretic by Charlotte Allen of the non-denominational Institute on Religion and Public Life[8] on account of his collaborations with Tat-siong Benny Liew of the College of the Holy Cross.
