Publisher Description: The essays in this volume are organized in three parts: scriptural, contextual, and theological. The central question being addressed is: How do Christians living in contexts where Islam is a majority or minority religion experience, express, or think of the cross? This is therefore an exercise in listening. As the contexts from where these engagements arise are varied, the essays, in drawing scriptural, contextual, and theological reflections, offer a cross-section of Christian thinking about Jesus and the cross. |
