All theologies, including a theology of liberation, “are not worth one act of faith, love, hope, committed …in active participation to liberate humankind from everything that dehumanizes it and prevents it from living according to the will of God.”

Got to host him at Phillips Theological Seminary for Ministers’ Week in the late 80’s. What a treat and what a wonderful man!

Sad to hear of the passing of theologian Gustavo Gutiérrez. I need to re-re-read "The Cry of the Poor". We owe Central & South America so much.
"The poverty of the poor is not a call to generous relief action, but a demand that we go and build a different social order."
