Being Human
Author: Dwight N. Hopkins
Publisher: Fortress Press
ISBN: 9781451407341
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
Dwight Hopkins, whose important work in Black Theology has mediated class theological concerns through the prism of African American culture, here offers a fresh take on theological anthropology. Rather than defined "the human" as one eternal or inviolable essence, however, Hopkins looks to the multiple and conflicting notions of the human in contemporary thought, and particularly three key variables: culture, self, and race. Hopkins' critical reframing of these concepts firmly locates human endeavor, development, transcendence, and liberation in the particular messiness of struggle and strife.

Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 106
Book Description
This book is a deep exploration of what it means to be both human and divine.

All of the peace that you need and the power to live a joyful life dwells within you. This book and the exercises within are one of the doors to your greater self. Do you dare enter into the struggle that will lead you to your greatness?
