Liberating Youth from Adolescence
Children & Youth
“Can you imagine your work with young people taking seriously that they are created in the image of God? Can you imagine your work with young people in such a way that sees them as a vital part of the body of Christ? Can you imagine your work with young people that helps them see themselves as children of God and makes room for their call to be cocreators with God? Jeremy Paul Meyers calls us to reimagine what we should have already known... young people were created with meaning and purpose! What they need are guides to assist them in becoming who they already are!”
Theology
“Lorena M. Parrish provides us with new strategies to take seriously the suffering of prosperity theology that we choose to ignore. Adding her voice with Abisoye Ajayi-Akinfolarin, Majora Carter, and William Barber, Parrish explores the devastating challenges of wealth and poverty with keen insight and substantive womanist prowess concerning the unique harms to Black women, Black churches, and all communities. Parrish’s fluid writing disturbs – provoking action action and insisting upon social change and theological re-imagination. With this very accessible resource, no more should theologies of prosperity go unchecked in our theological and religion classrooms. Nancy Lynne Westfield, director, Wabash Center for Teaching and Learning in Theology and Religion, and author of Glimpses of Me and Mine We Have Plenty is a groundbreaking work that challenges the Black Church to reimagine abundance beyond the limits of prosperity gospel ideology. With womanist theological depth and prophetic urgency, Lorena M. Parrish examines the historical ambivalence toward Jesus’s teachings on wealth and poverty and presents a compelling vision of communal plenty rooted in justice, redistribution, and radical love. This is a timely must-read for scholars, clergy, and anyone seeking to align faith with liberation.”
