While the world is awakening to the need for human liberation, equality, and justice, ministers have become increasingly aware "of oppression as the fundamental condition to which all preaching must be addressed." It is therefore essential that a thorough explanation of liberation preaching now be undertaken. With exceptional clarity, the concept, dynamics, methods, and forms of liberation preaching are thoroughly explained in this fascinating book by two authors whose enthusiasm for their subject is obvious. After a careful discussion of the basis and background of liberation theology, the Drs. González deal with the primary question of biblical interpretation. They thoroughly discuss the obstacles which impede a liberating interpretation of scriptural passages, offer specific suggestions for overcoming these obstacles, and bring new light on how to hear afresh familiar scriptures in order to appropriate their meaning in liberating ways. Sensitively and succinctly written, this vital book is abundantly illustrated with examples of the hidden obstacles to liberation. But more importantly, the authors suggest how subtle bondages can be removed when they urge ministers to make a personal investment in the process of liberation by going through the "hermeneuti cal circle." 2510687338441 Transformatio Library Bandung Theological Seminary 251 Gon l E10001078 E06000649 Non Fiction 251 Gon l E06000098 Non Fiction 251 Gon l E07002324 9780687338443 Non Fiction 251 Gon l-2 Liberation_Preaching.jpg 25481 2014-07-17 14:36:11 2025-10-24 18:32:30 machine generated
