It courageously presents Jesus Christ as the ultimate critical educator, who, like many others, was bi-cultural, marginalized, and oppressed. This book offers a distinctive perspective on Jesus as a teacher. Scholarship often focuses solely on Jesus' ethics and teachings, but this work aims to uncover the emancipatory power of his pedagogy and its foundational contributions to social movements like Liberation Theology in Latin America and the fight for Justice and Civil Rights for African Americans in North America. By examining both the theological and pedagogical offerings of Jesus, this book seeks to determine not only what can be learned from a critical pedagogy of Jesus but also who benefits most from engaging in his praxis.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough Jesus' masterful integration of theology and pedagogy, he is portrayed as the literal embodiment of liberation from all forms of oppression. It is in Jesus' emancipatory pedagogy that theology and education find their greatest fulfillment through an emancipatory praxis for liberation, ultimately resulting in a pedagogy that reconciles humanity back to God and God to humanity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 404g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 243 x 161 x 18 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780761872641\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Terrelle B.
