Hope in Process

Library Journal

This book provides a groundbreaking combination of process, liberation, and black theologies. It begins with a consciousness-raising critique of traditional approaches to cultural pluralism in America where minorities sacrificed their heritages and uniqueness in order to gain acceptance by the majority; then it shows the need for a paradigm shift from unity in conformity to unity in diversity through an organic pluralism found in process metaphysics. The book discusses in some detail the implications of multicultural patterns for theological method and for interpreting the sources of theology and concludes by discussing divine inclusiveness, human partnership with God for social change, and how a suffering God liberates. Essential for academic, seminary, and large public libraries.
