A Theological Aesthetics Of Liberation

Download or read book Christ Our Companion written by Roberto S. Goizueta and published by Orbis Books. This book was released on 2009 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How the lives of the companions of Jesus become the canvas upon which God paints a picture of liberation. Goizueta unites this book around the disjuncture between the Christian claim that Christ's life, death, and resurrection are the key to universal human meaning and our increased consciousness of the diverse, pluralistic world in which we live. How can a Christian proclaim his message when the rationales for so much of the violence we see around us are gounded in religious principles. The credibility of Christ's claims rests on the evidence presented by those persons who have lived out those claims.
