A Theology of Empowerment

Mery L.Y. Kolimon (* 1972 in SoE, West Timor) ponders on the generative theme of empowerment from a cross-cultural perspective. She traces this notion in the text (the Bible and Christian traditions) and explores concepts and applications of empowerment in global and local (West Timor, Indonesia) contexts. By using both written and oral sources this book offers a new way of "doing theology from below".
