Gregory Leffel
Theology
“It is no secret that the imperial West silenced countless indigenous societies while muzzling other identities even among its own—all too often with the complicity of missions, churches, and ideologically imperial theologies. This splendid introduction to the meaning and construction of postcolonial theologies shows us the power of the oppressed, in their own words and from their own histories, to set the record right, to transform our consciousness, to set us on the path of liberation, and to set free the peaceful gospel of shalom from the prison of empire.”
Participating in God's Mission
Evangelism & Missions
“How might American churches faithfully participate in God’s mission today? One way is by listening to Craig Van Gelder and Dwight Zscheile! They provide here a rich field guide to that complex faithfulness that marks Christian witness as participation in missio Dei. . . . This brilliant book is tender in its humane focus.”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“The journey into social justice activism begins with the first step—and with an experienced guide to lead us. Always a warm-hearted communicator and a passionate activist, Bill Mefford brings the wisdom of years to congregation-based social justice leadership, and deep faith to the challenge and joy of standing with the least and the left-behind. Read, The Fig Tree Revolution and learn from the best. Then get busy. You have a long road ahead!”
