We continue our series on liberation theology.

When most folks use the term "liberation theology" they are thinking of a movement that began in Latin America in the late 1960s...a movement to interpret the Gospel of Jesus through the experiences of the poor and oppressed. However, the impulse to re-politicize the Gospel and adopt a posture of solidarity with the oppressed is much older than that. And, today, theologies of liberation develop everywhere communities of faith experience oppression.

Today, we start looking at some of these various approaches in greater depth.
