Abuelita Fe – (Spanish)
$50.00
Que pasaria si algunos de nuestros mas grandes teologos no fueran considerados como tales, en absoluto?
Kat Armas es una cubanoamericana de segunda generacion que crecio en las cercanias del famoso vecindario La Pequea Habana de Miami. Su temprana formacion teologica provino de su abuela, que huyo de Cuba durante el apogeo de los disturbios politicos y crio a sus tres hijos sola tras la muerte de su esposo. Combinando la narracion personal con la reflexion biblica, Armas nos muestra el modo en que las voces marginadas –las que a menudo son rechazadas, aisladas y oprimidas debido a su genero, estatus socioeconomico o falta de educacion–, tienen mas que ensearnos en cuanto a seguir a Dios que lo que nos damos cuenta.
Abuelita fe cuenta la historia de teologas anonimas e ignoradas en la sociedad y en la Biblia –madres, abuelas, hermanas e hijas– cuya supervivencia, fuerza, resistencia y perseverancia nos ensean el verdadero poder de la fe y el amor. La exploracion de la autora en cuanto a la teologia de abuelita ayudara a personas de todos los origenes culturales y etnicos a reflexionar sobre las abuelitas en sus vidas y sus ministerios, y sobre las formas en que pueden vivir la fe de abuelita cada dia.
What if some of our greatest theologians wouldn’t be considered theologians at all?
Kat Armas, a second-generation Cuban-American, grew up on the outskirts of Little Havana, Miami’s famed Cuban neighborhood. Her earliest theological formation came from her grandmother, her abuelita, who fled Fidel Castro’s regime and raised three children alone after her husband passed away. Combining personal storytelling with biblical reflection, Armas shows us how voices on the margins–those often dismissed, isolated, and oppressed because of their gender, socioeconomic status, or lack of education–have more to tell us about Christian faith than we realize.
Abuelita Faith tells the story of unnamed and overlooked theologians in society and in the Bible–mothers, grandmothers, sisters, and daughters–whose survival, strength, resistance, and persistence teach us the true power of faith and love. The author’s exploration of abuelita theology will help people of all cultural and ethnic backgrounds reflect on the abuelitas in their own lives and ministries and on ways they can live out abuelita faith in their day-to-day lives.
