Preaching Justice brings together eight very diverse voices from eight distinct cultural/ethnic communities, challenging them to articulate the specific justice concerns, issues, and passions that give rise to a preaching ministry within their own community and beyond. Theological analyses are offered by these persons representing their particular communities: Kathy Black - persons with disabilities; Martin Brokenleg - Native Americans; Teresa Fry Brown - African Americans; Eleazar Fernandez - Filipino Americans; Justo Gonzalez - Hispanics; Eunjoo Mary Kim - Korean Americans; Stacy Offner - Jews; Christine Marie Smith - lesbians and gays. This volume offers a rare vision of what transformed preaching might sound and look like, and urges that all preaching - whatever community it comes from, whatever community it hopes to reach - be grounded in the sacred acts of listening and knowing.
