Aprašymas
The radical word of Christ has been captured by white supremacy, imperial power, and Christofascism. As progressive Christians, how do we think, move, and organize our way to liberation?
A reverend and activist’s guide for progressive Christians to challenge power structures, rebuild community, and reclaim an embodied, compassionate faith
In a time of rising white supremacy, political fascism, and deepening divisions, this book offers a radical vision of Christian liberation rooted in embodiment, collective healing, and transformative practice. It begins with a provocative claim: Jesus’s message of love and liberation has been captured by white supremacy and co-opted by Empire. And to get out from under these distortions, we can’t just think our way free: we need to embody liberation in body, mind, soul, and action.
Drawing on her experience transforming Grace Covenant Presbyterian Church, author Rev. Dr. Marcia Mount Shoop, MDiv, PhD, invites readers into a deeply embodied practice that connects back to the true essence of Christianity—a faith that is visceral, relational, alive, and grounded in love and compassion, not just “progressive niceness.” Dr. Shoop’s approach goes beyond performative justice and feel-good “window dressing” reform, exploring:
- How trauma, interdependence, and ambiguity shape our capacity for change
- What it means to become trauma-wise versus trauma-informed (and why that matters for people of faith)
- What happens when communities build cultures grounded in shared power, truth, love, and repair
- How social change actually lives and happens in the body
- True stories of mutual aid, dismantling racist church infrastructure, and radical redesigns of sacred spaces
- What liberation can truly look like in practice
- How to understand the potential costs of this work, from what it takes to step up to when it’s time to leave
- Practical how-tos for decolonizing physical and liturgical spaces
Theological and practical, inspiring and embodied, this book is an invitation to decolonize Christianity while reclaiming our bodies and recovering more courageous, faith-rooted ways of being in community. The work of liberation is difficult and long, but it is also a pathway back to our deepest expression of shared humanity and holy imagination.
