Journal of Latin American Theology: Christian Reflections from the Latino South
Special Issue on the 2015 Sao Paulo Conference on the Occasion of the FTL’s 45th Anniversary
Vol. 11, No. 2, Fall 2016
This issue of our Journal of Latin American Theology: Christian Reflections from the Latino South brings together some of the most representative papers from the FTL’s 2015 continental conference, ’45 Years of the FTL and Contemporary Theological Borders, ‘ held in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Building on the milestones of that past, participants faced the challenges of the present and future. Herein, Brazilian theologians and practitioners offer reflections on the FTL’s early days, Pentecostal theology, the intended ‘irrelevance’ of the church, the oral nature of the Gospels, and race relations within church and society. Spanish-speaking theologians and practitioners discuss public theology and the joyful dreams of God the Creator. A presentation of theological poetry rounds out this issue.
