Doing Theology as If People Mattered Encounters Contextual in Bloomington, MN

This book narrates a reflexive account of the “doing” of contextual theology at the Jesuit School of Theology (JST) of Santa Clara University. The collection explores practicing contextual theology in the classroom and beyond, in service, international immersions, interreligious dialogue, and mission. This collection narrates the story of contextual theology at JST: how the School came to select this theological method and how it guides the vision and mission of the School; how contextual theology shapes pedagogy and work in the classroom; how contextual theology and education  flourish in ministerial praxis in the local intercultural San Francisco Bay Area; and more.
