Interest in and awareness of the demand for social justice as an outworking of the Christian faith is growing. But it is not new. For five hundred years, Latina/o culture and identity have been shaped by their challenges to the religious, socio-economic, and political status quo, whether in opposition to Spanish colonialism, Latin American dictatorships, US imperialism in Central America, the oppression of farmworkers, or the current exploitation of undocumented immigrants. Christianity has played a significant role in that movement at every stage. Robert Chao Romero, the son of a Mexican father and a Chinese immigrant mother, explores the history and theology of what he terms the "Brown Church." Romero considers how this movement has responded to these and other injustices throughout its history by appealing to the belief that God's vision for redemption includes not only heavenly promises but also the transformation of every aspect of our lives and the world. Walking through this history of activism and faith, readers will discover that Latina/o Christians have a heart after God's own.

Highly recommend this extra soft, plushy, ripple warm fluff blanket! Looks great, feels great!
Color: Light Blue, Size: Twin
Oh wow this is such a nice blanket!! I have 3 of their regular fleece blankets, without the ripple- just plain fleece and they get washed 1x a week for about 2 years now and they have held up beautifully —- except for the mocha one I keep on my bed that my dog loves to dig in is starting to get frayed —- but it is still nicely soft! Just looks a bit worn so popped on for a bed upgrade since we are in winterageddon the saga that never ends this winter 2026…. I was going to order the same mocha again because I really like this brand and I absolutely get the 25$ moneys worth at 2 years… then this rippled one showed up…. Ok let’s try something new. I am SO glad I upgraded to this ripple! It is plush, and soft, and washed beautifully, and dried beautifully in reg cotton heat— even though it says medium heat care…. I put it on my bed and it looks beautiful! The ripples feel so soft and fluffy— but no fluff or fabric cast off! Even going through the dryer I thought for sure I would have a lint tray full—- it really wasn’t a lot! The color of the light baby blue is just perfect for a cream bedroom or as a navy accent color— it’s a cool true baby blue that looks great with my navy beige and cream bedroom. It is so warm! Much thicker feeling than the plain fleece blanket by bed sure—- some will like the heavier weight- I personally like the weight of blankets so this was a win!! 100% worth the price- highly recommend!

Very Soft Blanket NOT Only For Women and Girls Go For it Guys - BUY THE BLANKET
Color: Orange, Size: Queen, Color: Orange, Size: Queen
This bed, sure, gentle, soft queen, blanket for bed, cozy, soft, fall, blankets, for women, cute large fall throws for girls, orange, 90 X 90 inches is sold by: BEDSURE a seller that is located in CHINA The product is made in CHINA The product arrived in a box with a label, stuck on it not like packaging. You would see if you were buying a blanket at a retail store. Upon removing it from its airtight inner sealed bag, it had a very strong chemical odor to it, and it was very smashed. I placed it in the dryer on high heat for 10 minutes and it really did help to remove the odor and fluff the blanket up. I'm a little confused why this blanket is only for a woman and girls? At least that's what I had for when I read the title of the listing so I guess if you are a man, you cannot have this blanket kind of odd and if I were the seller, I would change that because it definitely will affect search results... I used the blanket on top of my bed as an actual comforter. My bed is a full-size bed. I ordered a queen size blanket, and it covers it nicely. It is probably one of the softest blankets I have ever felt in my life and yes, I would recommend this if you were in the purchase for a nice large, soft, cozy blanket!
