Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Finalist

Interest in and awareness of the demand for social justice as an outworking of the Christian faith is growing. But it is not new.

For five hundred years, Latina/o culture and identity have been shaped by their challenges to the religious, socio-economic, and political status quo, whether in opposition to Spanish colonialism, Latin American dictatorships, US imperialism in Central America, the oppression of farmworkers, or the current exploitation of undocumented immigrants. Christianity has played a significant role in that movement at every stage.

Robert Chao Romero, the son of a Mexican father and a Chinese immigrant mother, explores the history and theology of what he terms the "Brown Church." Romero considers how this movement has responded to these and other injustices throughout its history by appealing to the belief that God's vision for redemption includes not only heavenly promises, but also the transformation of every aspect of our lives and the world. Walking through this history of activism and faith, listeners will discover that Latina/o Christians have a heart after God's own.

Wonderful history truth

I learned so much from this book and will listen again to major parts. History that has been hidden or not thought as important enough.

Thoughtful

Social activism and Christianity or Catholicism are often asserted as diametrically opposed. In this book, Romero explores how this fallacy is uniquely challenging for the Latino and Chicano communities, although Romero identifies the Brown Church as made up of people of color who are other than black.

“I am the Brown Church… When black and white come to talk, my voice is not heard. I am not invited to the table.”

I am not the intended audience for this book, and yet I found it thoughtful and well supported in terms of the many biblical references that underscore how God loves all but seeks out, and even favors, people who are oppressed or otherwise suffering.

“My identity and citizenship are found in Christ, and no human law will change this.”
