In many ways, this is a really ideal introduction to a more justice (or praxis-) oriented approach to Christianity and particularly the Bible. Information technology methodically lays out what is problematic about a privileged agreement of Christianity from the center (largely that it abstracts the transformative and radical callings of the faith into metaphorical loopholes that allow for the connected perpetuation of the status quo) and and then goes onto explain why refocusing to appoint with the Bible through marginal perspectives is both corrective and in alignment with Jesus's original audience. I work for the ministry Mission Year and we added it to our curriculum this year; that is a context in which I'm actually grateful for this book.

With that said, it definitely merely skims the shallow waters of essentially each vantage point it engages with, and this is particularly true for those marginalized by their sexual orientation. The section on "The Gay Christ" in particular felt the most like an added afterthought, and I think the argument he made was really lacking and would have profoundly benefited from an engagement with Queer Theory (although, I just realized that Radical Beloved: An Introduction to Queer Theology, the text I immediately thought of, wasn't published until 2011, ix years subsequently this book). My concern is that, because De La Torre prioritized the inclusion of a diverse and wide-ranging collection of demographics and representative voices, those who are more than skeptical could finish the book unmoved and unconvinced by their featured contributions because of the brevity of their appointment. Nonetheless, I practise think that he successfully drove his overarching bespeak dwelling house, which was the importance of engaging with those voices (and the people they're connected to) –– which hopefully involves farther reading than his brief overviews.

Despite agreeing quite ardently with De La Torre's message and points, I did feel tension with the pronounced lack of nuance effectually "those at the margins" and their practiced religiosity. That is to say, in many ways it seemed as though people were regarded every bit monoliths, and as someone who has/currently lives "on the margins" in an economically disadvantaged Hispanic neighborhood of Northward Philly, I can assure yous that there is arable diversity within the theological orientations of people here. In fact, many of them trend towards the more conservative, abstract theologies that De La Torre associates with whiteness, wealth, power, and privilege. While this undeniably invites a conversation around colonization and isn't at all a conclusive counter-statement to his bespeak, it felt increasingly frustrated to encounter people living at the margins presented equally if they all, by default, approach their faith in the ways he was describing. What I would really dear from a book like this is a more robust engagement with the widespread and frequently-quoted notion that "Liberation Theology opted for the Poor, and the Poor, in turn, opted for Pentecostalism."

Specially because that we're all budgeted the topic from a viewpoint of grace, he should show a little more grace and willingness to reconcile with those who he considers to be marginalized by. ...more

De La Torre provides a hard yet approachable read for those who want an introduction to unlike theological lenses. His ideas are well articulated. In that location were several instances where my privilege bumped up against his words, causing me both discomfort and the desire to rethink how I arroyo scripture. For this I am both stretched and thankful.

Every bit if reading or faith or anything could e'er exist devoid of indicate of view or purely objective. de la Torre celebrates the insights and strength that come from reading scripture from a particular indicate of view, and argues that reading from a more marginalized civilization makes one more, rather than less, likely to read in means that are faithful to the power and message of the gospel.

The final sentence of the book: "Reading the Bible from the margins provides a salvific bulletin of liberation for all humanity by providing the key to combat the oppression of humans by other humans so that all tin enjoy the abundant life." (172)

Iv lines from his penultimate chapter on salvation.
-"...circumscribed Jesus to my personal life becomes the ultimate human activity of religious selfishness." (137)
-"How can a church building in an affluent nation similar the U.s.a. follow the God of the crucified people?" (146)
-"...when Euroamericans read 'righteous' or 'righteousness' in their Bibels, Hispanics read 'merely' or 'justice.'" (146)
-"Salvation, as liberation, requires crucifying maleness, riches, and whiteness - in other words, the active dismantling of any social structure designed to privilege one group at the expense of another." (150)

And from the concluding chapter:
"The themes that serve as the foundation for how marginalized communities read the text too serve as a corrective to the highly individualistic and spiritual interpretations coming from the center of social club." (160)
-Exodus: God the Liberator
-Amos: God the Seeker of Justice
-The Gospels: God the Doer
-Acts and the Letters from Paul: God the Subverter

He made the point that there is i Greek give-and-take that tin can exist translated every bit either righteousness or justice.

He made the signal that there is one Greek discussion that can be translated every bit either righteousness or justice. So, in the Beatitudes my English NIV says, "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness," while my Spanish Bible says, "Dichosos los que tienen hambre y sed de justicia." While my agreement of righteousness had always been about an individual relationship with God that resembled piety, my understanding of justice had a more horizontal dimension - involving non only our human relationship with God, only also with other people and even all of creation. This may have been the kickoff to a disquisitional shift in my understanding of who God is and our relationship to God and others.

So, I picked upward the book which has now made three moves with our family unit along with its slowly moving bookmark. Only, earlier this calendar month, I finished reading it, and detect information technology a really helpful tool. In some means it is like a very basic primer to the curriculum I experienced at McCormick Seminary. I'm glad to accept it equally an bachelor resource, but also happy to lend it to anyone who is interested in considering how the Bible is approached by those living at the margins of society.

Don't allow the long time information technology took me to complete the book continue you from my strong recommendation that others read the book, as was my wife's initial reaction!

While De La Torre disagrees with the modern definition of racism being the active hatred for some other race or the conscious belief that one is superior, I believe he goes also far on the other side to debate that your thoughts exercise non thing at all, and that you are racist simply if the system works in your favor, whether or not you are fighting to try to rectify the arrangement. That definition becomes racist because information technology is based purely on your skin color as well. I remember that racism is something that is more of a mix of both, and in-between. Racism is something of benefiting from your skin color, only not acknowledging the injustice or trying to right the wrongs that are occurring. Information technology is the unwillingness to attain out across cultural and racial borders and understand those unlike than you. People tin be racist without outright antisocial someone, but I don't think we should label someone racist simply considering of their skin, considering that simply adds to the problem, especially in a fourth dimension when that give-and-take brings upwards a lot of hurt and frustrations. ...more

He offers indispensible challenges to how Euroamerican culture has read the ancient biblical texts, peculiarly how they have inserted their own values in place of the needs and desires of the text'south original audience. All those inside the dominant culture of the w should wrestle with DLT's challenges here.
However the volume frequently accuses the aboriginal authors for not sharing 21st century western sensibilities. These modernistic sensibilities are, in the decision, how DLT defines what Jesus must have meant by "abundant life." Of import for its promotion of the marginalized'southward perspective and its modeling of how to read the scriptures from underneath, much of the volume's exegetical conclusions should be challenged by and would benefit from other sources stronger on the historical groundwork of the main texts.

De La Torre successfully elucidates the power of estimation in the Bible and how it has been used in manipulation. He shows, in specific example verses, the capacity for interpretations that assist those who are victims of systematic oppression. This is not a book on the exclusivity of the Bible for salvation, but rather reclaiming it for what information technology is--a low-cal in the darkness of suffering.
