Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A call to free Jesus from the colonial ethic of exploitation and oppression that has distorted much of Christian theology and ministry.Liberating Jesus confronts the troubling question of whether 2,000 years of Christianity have caused more harm than good. From the slave trade to the climate crisis, author Kristopher Norris challenges the Church, particularly privileged Christians, to examine its complicity in systemic injustice. In response, he presents a refreshing and innovative ethical framework: a communitarian virtue ethic of liberation. This approach uniquely reconciles the seemingly divergent theological traditions of postliberalism, with its emphasis on community and character, and liberation theology, with its focus on justice for the oppressed.Drawing upon a wide range of sources-including liberationist, womanist, Anabaptist, and postliberal theologies, and guided by thinkers like Dietrich Bonhoeffer, James Cone, Ella Baker, Oscar Romero, and Katie Cannon-Norris models a new way of doing Christian ethics. The book first lays the theoretical groundwork, linking worship, practice, and character formation to the work of justice. It then applies this robust framework to some of the most urgent ethical issues facing the church today: patriarchy and toxic masculinity, white supremacy and racial injustice, war and peacemaking, poverty and consumerism, and the climate crisis. Throughout, Norris calls on readers to confront the oppressive legacy of Christian ethics and begin to live lives of solidarity and advocacy, following the witness of Jesus, for the liberation of the marginalized.This book provides Christians-students, clergy, and laypeople-with various levels of privilege a new way to understand their role and responsibility in participating in movements for justice and liberation.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In Witnessing Whiteness, Kristopher Norris explores the challenges that lie at the intersection of race, church, and politics in America and argues for a new ethics of responsibility to confront white supremacy. Norris provides in-depth analysisdescriptions of the ways whiteness, as a process of social/identity formation, is fueling racial division within American Christianity and the inadequacy of efforts at racial reconciliation to fully address the challenges posed by white supremacy poses. Seeking deeper theological reasons for racial injustice, he focuses on two of the most important thinkers in American religion of the past half century, Stanley Hauerwas and James Cone. Examining the current manifestations of racism in American churches, exploring the theological roots of white supremacy, and reflecting on the ways whiteness impacts even well-meaning, progressive white theologians, this book diagnoses the ways in which all of white theology and white Christian practice are implicated in white supremacy. By identifying the roots of white supremacy within the Christian church's theology and practice, it argues that the white church has a particular, and fundamental, responsibility to address it.Witnessing Whiteness uncovers this responsibility ethic at the convergence of two prominent streams in theological ethics: traditionalist witness theology and black liberationist theology. Employing their shared resources and attending to the criticisms liberation theology directs at traditionalism, it proposes concrete practices to challenge the white church's and white theology's complicity in white supremacy.…
