Encountering the Jewish Future

World Religions

“Encountering the Jewish Future will rapidly become a landmark of 21st century prophetic writings. Marc Ellis subversively unfolds the liberationist character of Jewish thought and courageously puts the revolutionary tradition in the service of the wretched of earth. This book is a must read for all cross–borders of conscience committed to global justice.”

Finding Our Voice

Christian Living

“Finding Our Voice is a beautiful and dismaying song of the prophetic. In yet another groundbreaking work, Marc Ellis offers an articulated interrogation of the complexities of theological justice, interreligious conversations, and Jewish identity. Excavating the buried responsibilities of peoplehood, he offers to the next generation of fighters the sparks that can lead to another future. This is a must-read for anyone interested in Jewish thought, social justice, coloniality and religion, Palestinian studies, and interreligious conversations.”

Future of the Prophetic

“This new book by Marc H. Ellis crowns three decades of critical literary production that has enriched and diversified substantially the worldwide varieties of liberation theologies. Among its several contributions, I consider very valuable the contraposition of two highly different theological perspectives: the prophetic and the Constantinian. The first emphasizes the virtues and duties of solidarity and compassion with the destitute of the world; the second constitutes the religious legitimation of empire and social inequality. Both are part of the historical legacy of the three great Semitic religions: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The way Ellis weaves the myriad conflicts between the prophetic and the Constantinian traditions is a fine starting point for interreligious and intercultural dialogue." —Luis N. Rivera-Pagán, Henry Winters Luce Professor in Ecumenics and Mission Emeritus Princeton Theological Seminary "Future of the Prophetic could not arrive at a better time. When heated debates about Jewish identity and American responsibilities in Israel-Palestine are at the center of the scene, Ellis pushes us once again to cross the border of what can be thought. While he admits that prophetic Jewishness is wounded, he draws from one of the most provocative selections of alternative voices to affirm and announce the possibilities for a Jewish and global prophetic future. This is a must-read for everyone interested in Jewish thought, inter-religious studies, and American/Middle Eastern politics.”

Spirit Outside the Gate

Theology

“Spirit Outside the Gate is an excellent interrogation of the geopolitical dead-ends of theological inquiry, employing the most cutting-edge resources from decolonial thought. With his long-standing engagement among evangelical racializedcommunities, Oscar García-Johnson successfully excavates histories that have been made invisible, epistemologies that have been veiled, and struggles that have been eclipsed, in order to offer alternative paths for a just future. This book is a necessary contribution and a must-read for people interested in decolonial theologies; religion in the Americas; evangelical minoritized communities; and religion, race, and politics.”

Theology in the Capitalocene

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“Theology in the Capitalocene is an extraordinary proposal for deep solidarities beyond reductionism. Drawing from a true diversity of voices from disenfranchised communities, Joerg Rieger superbly connects the study of economics, religion, and ecology, effectively unmasking and breaking universalized ideological hegemonies. By doing so he opens novel paths for confronting both capitalist catastrophes and capitalist narratives of catastrophes in the twenty-first century. This is a must-read for anyone interested in political theologies, liberation practices, radical social movements, race and religion, and the most current social and political theories.”
