How do we work toward healing, reconciliation, and justice among all people, regardless of race or gender? In Embracing the Other Grace Ji-Sun Kim demonstrates that it is possible only through God's Spirit. Working from a feminist Asian perspective, Kim develops a new constructive global pneumatology that works toward gender and racial-ethnic justice. She draws on concepts from Asian and indigenous cultures to reimagine the divine as'Spirit God'who is restoring shalom in the world. Through the power of Spirit God, Kim says, our brokenness is healed and we can truly love and embrace the Other. -- Publisher description.Prophetic Christianity.WomenReligious aspectsChristianitySex roleReligious aspectsChristianityWomenSocial conditionsRace discriminationReligious aspectsChristianityRacismReligious aspectsChristianityWomenReligious aspectsChristianity.Sex roleReligious aspectsChristianity.WomenSocial conditions.Race discriminationReligious aspectsChristianity.RacismReligious aspectsChristianity.230.082Kim Grace Ji-Sun1969-1680896MiFhGGMiFhGGBOOK9910821829703321Embracing the other4049928UNINA
