The Contribution of Pastoral Institutes for an Inculturated and Contextualized Ministry
Full text linkThis article focuses on the contribution of pastoral institutes for an inculturated and contextualized ministry in the non-Western local churches.

How is the Church to respond to these challenging new realities in Asia? What does it mean to be Church in the fastest-growing economic region of the world? Where are we called to stand in the face of spiraling imbalances in economic, social, and political power? Christina Kheng weaves her thoughts within the paradigm of liberation theology. The method, ecclesiology, and concerns of Latin American liberation theologians can be of help to the Church of Asia. A keen awareness of the social location of the individual Asian churches will generate greater sensitivity to the concrete experiences of the marginalized.
