Reviews

Penn has succeeded admirably... Kissing Christians has broken new ground, greatly enriching our understanding of this important Christian liturgical ritual and community-forming practice. -The Medieval Review This fascinating study should serve as an invitation to scholars of ancient Christian discourse, symbol, and liturgy to take the kiss seriously, but not only that: Kissing Christians invites a reconsideration of the intersection of discourse and practice throughout the early Christian period. -Church History
