Contextual Theology for Latin America: Liberation Themes in Evangelical Perspective (Paternoster Theological Monographs)
'A first class systematic and comprehensive review of the historical background and main themes of this most significant theological movement in Latin America.' - C. Rene Padilla "Whereas Latin American Liberation Theology is renowned throughout the worldwide Christian community, a fresh expression of evangelical mission theology from the same context is less well known. This book redresses the balance and shows why this latter pattern of theological thought offers a new focus and process of the renewal of theology that successfully combines faithfulness to the full biblical message with sensitive awareness of the historical and social reality of a turbulent, suffering continent. Her comprehensive, sympathetic and discerning treatment of this theological approach deserves to be read widely, pondered deeply and enacted practically." J. Andrew Kirk, author of What is Mission? Theological Explorations and Mission under Scrutiny: Confronting current Challenges "Well-researched, clearly written, informative and illuminating. Sharon Heaney's study of evangelical theology in Latin America is a significant contribution to our understanding of the contemporary church and its mission." Stephen N. Williams, Professor of Systematic Theology, Union Theological College, Belfast--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
