By repositioning evangelical to mean \"gospel affirming,\" the author argues that \u003ci\u003etheologia crucis\u003c\/i\u003e refers to the Christ-event as a whole and not just the event of the cross. Such a reading opens the space for creative, constructive, and promising prospects of addressing the evangelical concerns of authority, identity, activity, and self-criticality. After outlining the development of Christian Staurology in the Indian context, the author discusses three trajectories of \u003ci\u003etheologia crucis\u003c\/i\u003e. Following this, he traces the contours of an evangelical reading of \u003ci\u003etheologia crucis\u003c\/i\u003e, demonstrating how it disrupts normative interpretations of the cross by envisioning a reconciliative God and cross, leading to the articulation of \u003ci\u003ehumanitas crucis\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003e-\u003c\/b\u003ethe humanity of the cross. By way of implications for public engagement, the author discusses how evangelical \u003ci\u003etheologia crucis\u003c\/i\u003e helps in envisioning ideas like reconciliative justice, reconciliative political will, reconciliative solidarity, and reconciliative community, especially in relation to the politically violent context in India.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAmritraj Joshua Paul \u003c\/b\u003eis associate professor of theology at South Asia Institute of Advanced Christian Studies (SAIACS).\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"T\u0026T Clark","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51966994022674,"sku":"9781666981025","price":126.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_87a16422-5b33-42d2-918c-14a2961ec20d.jpg?v=1768918615","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/an-evangelical-reading-of-theologia-crucis-in-the-indian-context-9781666981025","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
