About The Events
From the lived theology of grandmothers to traditions of scholarship, from ancient liturgies to contemporary resistance, eight Palestinian Christian theologians offer a crucial and vibrant perspective on liberation, reconciliation, and divine imagination. Written within the heart of suffering, the cross and the olive tree interpret each other in an unwavering hope, symbols of faith and homeland.
Join brothers John and Samuel Munayer, editors of the forthcoming Orbis Press book, "The Cross and the Olive Tree: Cultivating Palestinian Theology Amid Gaza," as they travel from Palestine for a national speaking tour across the United States, which comes to Austin Seminary in October!
Light refreshments will be served and The Viva Palestina Orchestra will perform!
Books available for purchase at each event.
Location: McMillan Memorial Building, Room #210.
