Review Quotes:
"Keenly critical and hopeful'--Modern Theology
"A brilliant and compelling articulation of a Hispanic/Latino theology, Goizueta claims as his starting point the lived reality of a people. He validates the popular Catholicism of U.S. Hispanics as a privileged place of God's revelation, and traces out in practical ways the power of a theology of 'accompañamiento' which is lived within the Hispanic community."--Ana María Pineda, RSM, Catholic Theological Union at Chicago
"Roberto Goizueta gifted the theological world with an immediate classic that decades later continues to speak insightfully and prophetically about what it means to journey as American Catholics through Hispanic eyes. No study of theology will be complete without seriously engaging Caminemos con Jesús."--Hosffman Ospino, Boston College; past president, Academy of Catholic Hispanic Theologians of the United States."Thirty years on, Caminemos Con Jesús remains 'a pearl of great price' (Matt 13:46). The wisdom found in these pages takes on greater luminosity through a new introduction that deepens three of the book's grounding themes. These pages are alert not only to the sharp divisions of this historical moment but also to the journey of the spirit within, urging a new reverence for the common good that is all of us. Like all classic works, this prescient book stretches imaginations with every new reading. Theologically erudite, spiritually deepening."--Nancy Pineda-Madrid, president, Catholic Theological Society of America
"Thirty years after its initial publication, Caminemos con Jesús is even more relevant in its challenge to the modern and postmodern assumptions about what it means to be human, to be rational, and to be a people of faith." --Leo Guardado, Fordham University
"A classic and iconic work in the annals of US Latine academic theology, Goizueta's Caminemos Con Jesús is as pertinent now as it was when it first appeared in 1995. Tendering at once a critique of epistemic individualism; a highlighting of the creative power and liberatory potential contained in Latino/a popular Catholicism; and a call towards a modality of Christian discipleship marked by the desire to stand up for and travel with the vulnerable of the world, it remains a must-read today."--Benjamin Valentín, professor of theology and Latinx studies, Boston College Clough School of Theology and Ministry
