Proposes creative implications of the 500-year Reformation tradition for today
As the global church assesses the legacy of the Lutheran Reformation, Alberto GarcÃa and John Nunes in this book reimagine central Reformational themes from black, Hispanic, and other perspectives traditionally at the margins of catholic-evangelical communities.
Focusing on the central theme of justification, GarcÃa and Nunes delve into three interlinked aspects of the church's life in the world-martyria (witness), diakonia (service), and koinoÌ„nia (fellowship). They argue that it is critically important and vitally enriching for the whole church, especially Eurocentric Protestant churches, to learn from the grassroots theological emphases of Christian communities in the emerging world.
