Beyond Piety

Christian Living

“Cavazos-Gonzalez has written a masterful book--easy to read while extraordinary in its insightful reflections on Christian spirituality as socially engaged life journey. From the Bible to Vatican II, through patristic and medieval authors to Gabriel Marcel, Gustavo Gutierrez, and Ignacio Ellacuria, to Carmen Nanko-Fernandez, and Stephen Bevans, the author weaves scholarship with lived experience and social context to offer us a must-read introduction to Christian spirituality. This is a book that seduces and embraces.”

Dogmatics after Babel

Theology

“This is a challenging and daring book. It dares ask two axial questions that organize and guide the author’s reflections: What happens to doctrinal language when we accept theological diversity as normative? And what happens when we stop viewing theological pluralism as a problem to be solved (Babel) and embrace it as a gift of the Spirit (Pentecost)? Rubén Rosario’s tour de force is insightful and brilliantly argued. I recommend this volume without hesitation.”

Immigrant Neighbors among Us

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“A superb collection of chapters addressing immigration from the theological, ethical, and pastoral perspectives of most of the main ecclesial traditions present among U.S. Latinas/os today. Highly recommended for those seeking a serious, informed, and more sensible understanding of immigration.”
