SUMMARY:RLC Book Club with Rev. Dr. Mitri Raheb
DESCRIPTION:Rev. Dr. Mitri Raheb is founder and president of Dar al-Kalima University in Bethlehem\, Palestine. Raheb is the most widely published Palestinian theologian to date\, including his Orbis books Faith in the Face of Empire and\, with Suzanne Henderson\, The Cross in Contexts: Suffering and Redemption in Palestine. He received the 2017 Tolerance Ring Award from the European Academy of Arts and Sciences\, the 2015 Olof Palme Prize\, the 2012 German Media Prize\, the 2006 International Mohammad Nafi Tschelebi Peace Award\, and the 2007 German Peace Award of Aachen. He holds a doctorate in theology from Philipps University\, Marburg\, Germany\, and an honorary doctorate from Concordia University\, Chicago. \nWe will be discussing his book “Decolonizing Palestine” challenges the weaponization of biblical texts to support the current settler-colonial state of Israel. Raheb argues that some of the most important theological concepts –Israel\, the land\, election\, and chosen people – must be decolonized in a paradigm shift in Christian theological thinking about Palestine. Decolonizing Palestine is a timely book that builds on the latest research in settler-colonialism and human rights to place traditional theological themes within the wider socio-political context of settler colonialism as it is practiced by the modern nation-state of Israel. Written by a native Palestinian Christian theologian who continues to live in the region\, Decolonizing Palestine provides an insider’s perspective that disrupts hegemonic and imperialist narratives about the region. \nHe will be in conversation with Shane Claiborne and we’ll also feature another important work of Dr. Mitri’s\, “Faith in the Face of Empire.” \nFind us streaming live on Red Letter Christian’s Facebook\, Twitter\, or YouTube channels and register to join us on Zoom: \nRegister Here Now or join us live on Facebook or YouTube.
