SUMMARY:Always With Us? What Jesus Really Said About the Poor
DESCRIPTION:Duration: The course will meet on Tuesdays\, November 27\, December 4\, and December 11\, 5:30-8:30pm. \nContent: This three-part course will reclaim the radical teachings of the Bible around poverty\, wealth and power that have been lost to many of our movements. It will be structured around the acclaimed scholarship of Rev. Dr. Liz Theoharis and her book\, Always With Us? What Jesus Really Said About the Poor\, and the pedagogy of “reading the Bible with the poor” or “contextual Bible study.”   \nBecause of the significance the Bible holds for many in our society and because of the way the Bible has been used both as a “text of terror” and as an inspiration for social movements\, the Poverty Initiative and Kairos Center hold the Bible and contextual Bible study – what we term “Reading the Bible with the Poor” – as central work in building a social movement to end poverty\, led by the poor. This pedagogy grows out of examples from South Africa\, Latin American Liberation Theology\, and other experiences of the poor globally reclaiming the biblical mandate for justice\, and we have developed it within our U.S. context. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Liberation Theology
DESCRIPTION:Duration: This course meets Tuesdays 5:30-8:30pm on November 6\, 13\, and 20. \nContent: This course will provide a conceptual overview and history of a particular understanding and practice of religion that has developed through social struggles and played an integral role in advancing those struggles. The course will examine some of the principles behind liberation theology as it has emerged in historical struggles of the poor\, including Latin American Liberation Theology\, Black Liberation Theology\, as well as in the context of non-Christian contexts. It will also take up questions about how such a theology is emerging in struggles today\, in particular by drawing on the experiences and insights of leaders from the Poor People’s Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival. \n
