Description: Explores the broadening sources for Christian theology by examining the places to find God that have been historically overlooked by Christian tradition. These places, known as "the margins," often go unseen except by those who dwell there due to factors such as gender, economic poverty, and religious identity. Through overviews and in-depth explorations, this book introduces readers to contemporary interreligious work and its methodologies, which recognize God's presence among religious others and embrace the experiences of non-Christians as theological sources.--
