Exploring the centrality of social justice within the Church and the social gospel.
This lecture will challenge the plausibility of an ecclesial isolation through the examination of social borders, social inclusion/exclusion, and the experience of the materialistic and the metaphysical today. Where are the borders that need to be embraced by the Church? Where are the borders of theology and social justice? Is God’s option for the poor and the marginalised our own option?
Speaker
Professor Mario I Aguilar, Professor of religion and politics, and director of the centre of religion and politics, University of St Andrews.
