The Spirit in Contemporary Black Theology and Religion -- 8. A Theology of the Spirit(s).In this book Kurt Buhring explores concepts of spirit(s) within various Black religions as a means to make a constructive theological contribution to contemporary Black theology in regard to ideas of the Holy Spirit, or pneumatology. He argues that there are rich resources within African and African-based religions to develop a more robust notion of the Holy Spirit for contemporary Black liberation theology. In so doing, Buhring offers a pneumatology that understands divine power and presence within humanity and through human action. The theology offered maintains the fundamental claim that God acts as liberator of the oppressed, while also calling for greater human responsibility and capability for bringing about liberation.Black Religion/Womanist Thought/Social Justice,2945-6983Liberation theologyEthnologyAfricaCultureAfrican literatureAfrican languagesLiberation TheologyAfrican CultureAfrican LiteratureAfrican LanguagesLiberation theology.EthnologyCulture.African literature.African languages.Liberation Theology.African Culture.African Literature.African Languages.230.08996073230.08996Buhring Kurt1257598MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQ9910592988803321Spirit(s) in Black Religion2914293UNINA
