Understanding God as all-compassionate, and Jesus as the Compassion of God, this book provides a model of a compassionate church as a 'liberating community:' people who, knowing what they believe, work and worship together in the service of humanizing praxis in their own community, and in the world at large. Finally, this ministry call for 'compassionate evangelism' which proceeds itself from the community, as a more holistic and historical approach than that offered by current models. Orbis Books, 168 pages. Paperback.
