Ideological groundings and methodology -- An incinerator comes to Naboth's vineyard: 1 Kings 21:1-16 -- An empty tomb and empty homes: Mark 16:1-8 -- Facilitation and methodology.
In this volume, Crystal L. Hall provides a spirited introduction to the methods and strategies for reading the Bible "from below"--from the back of church sanctuaries, from basements, from sidewalks. Drawing on these methods of reading the Bible, Hall brings biblical study into dialogue with real-world organizing and its struggle for economic justice. This dynamic process of reading the Bible unfolds at the intersections of the "hermeneutical triangle": of reality, the Bible, and community. This book is for anyone curious about how to use the Bible as a resource for literation: from faith leaders and community organizers to biblical scholars and students.--back page of cover.
