Drawing on the primary motif of the biblical exile, and by exploring diverse models of church from the past and the present, the potential for a creative and subversive faith is offered. This is a book that moves beyond confessional, scholastic, and pietistic theologies and theological practice, which has contributed to a history of domination, violence, and sectarianism. From the margins of exile, hope, and creativity, more authentic expressions of faith are possible in a critical time.
