Farley presents a powerful expression of Jesus Christ as expereinced by those who are marginalized and persecuted in contempory society. Drawing on broader theological sources, Farley compellingly argues that the doctrine of the incarnation is the basis of a radical inclusivity and defense of the preciousness of all human beings, especailly those the church marginalizes. |
