In this experimental theological adventure, Graham Adams imagines what might flow from a more thorough 'be-child-ing' of God. Aware that the Child can be idealized, he selects particular characteristics of childness in order to disrupt God's omnipresence, omnipotence and omniscience.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe smallness of the Child re-envisages divine location in sites of smallness, like an open palm receiving the experiences of the overlooked. The weakness of the Child reimagines divine agency as chaos-event, subverting prevailing patterns of power and evoking relationships of mutuality. And the curiosity of the Child reconceives divine encounter as horizon-seeker, imaginatively and empathetically pursuing the unknown.\u003cbr\u003eThese possibilities are brought into dialogue both with other theologies (Black, disabled and queer) and with pastoral loss, economic\/ecological injustice, and theological education. Through these conversations, God the Child emerges not only as a new model for God, but intrinsic to God's new social reality which is close at hand.\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 226\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.52 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 30, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45879077929157,"sku":"9780334065005","price":27.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/6718\/5605\/files\/XI_e0fBlho9780334065005_5ceb15e1-6e91-4a8d-9795-582ca1d3fb9f.webp?v=1771767131","url":"https:\/\/selloorium.com\/products\/god-the-child-small-weak-and-curious-subversions-paperback-1","provider":"Selloorium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
