  • Beyond Apathy: A Theology for Bystanders

    Beyond Apathy: A Theology for Bystanders

    Theological conversations about violence typically frame the conversation in terms of victim and perpetrator.

In doing so, it constructs a theology of redeeming grace for bystanders to violence that foregrounds the significance of social action in bringing about God's community.
