Sanchez -- The liberating mission of Jesus / Extravagant interruption / Being witnesses of God / Elieser Valentin -- Orlando O. Espin -- Liliana Da Valle -- Jean-Pierre Ruiz -- Mireya Alvarez -- Pablo A. Jimenez -- Carmen M. Nanko-Fernandez -- Efrain Agosto -- Teresa Maya -- Miguel Alvarez -- M.T. Davila -- Elieser Valentin. Introduction /
The Latino/a community continues to grow at a faster pace than any other racial or ethnic group in the country. In part because of this growth, Latino/as have begun to be recognized as bona fide contributors to American society, whether through sports, music, literary work, theology, or ministry. Largely missing from this, however, has been attention to the creative and indeed prophetic expression coming from the Latino/a pulpit--that is, the sermons being developed and preached from the Latino/a churches. This books fills that void. Eli Valentin has gathered some of the top US Latino/a theologians and religious practicioners to contribute actual sermons that have been constructed out of the rough and tumble of the Latino/a reality. The sermons in this book approach nitty-gritty issues that directly impact Latinos/as in the United States. What we find as a result is a message of hope that continues to emanate from the Latino/a pulpit, a hope placed in a God who promises a restored cosmos.
