Doing Theology as if People Mattered narrates a reflexive account
of the "doing" of contextual theology at the Jesuit School of
Theology (JST) of Santa Clara University. The collection explores
practicing contextual theology in the classroom and beyond, in
service, international immersions, interreligious dialogue, and
mission. The book presents the concept of contextual theology as
expressed and lived at the Jesuit School of Theology of Santa Clara
University in Berkeley, California, a member school of the Graduate
Theological Union. All theology is contextual (Stephen Bevans) and
the Jesuit School of Theology has operated out of this paradigm for
many years. Implicit in the book is the faculty's conversion to
doing contextual theology in the educational context of the
classroom and beyond. This collection narrates the story of
contextual theology at JST: how the School came to select this
theological method and how it guides the vision and mission of the
School; how contextual theology shapes pedagogy and work in the
classroom; how contextual theology and education flourish in
ministerial praxis in the local intercultural San Francisco Bay
Area, and in international contexts, as the School engages in
immersions, pilgrimage, and interreligious dialogue; how JST
welcomes students from many continents, and prepares students to go
back to those contexts; and how JST lives out the maxim of a "faith
that does justice".
