Christ and the Other

How should we relate to 'others' - those within a particular tradition, those of different traditions, and those who are oppressed? In the light of these anxieties, this book offers a vision, rooted in community with others and building on the work of Andrew Shanks, of Christ as 'the Shaken One'. Shaped through dialogue with the theologies of John Hick and Leslie Newbigin, Adams urges Christian communities to attend more deeply to the demands of ecumenical, dialogical and political theologies, to build an ever greater 'solidarity of others' - a quality of community better demonstrating Christlike 'other-regard'.
