Church of Sweden adds gender-neutral ways of addressing God
The Church of Sweden has added gender-neutral ways of addressing God to its new Worship Book. Antje Jackelén, who heads the Church and is Sweden's first female archbishop, said, "Theologically... we know that God is beyond our gender determinations, God is not human." The decision was taken by a 251-member decision-making body of the church after an eight-day meeting.
