O?scar Romero, liberation theology, and a revolutionary saint.
Lee offers a profound reflection on the theological implications of Archbishop Oscar Romero s life and ministry drawing on Romero s biography as well as his homilies and other writings. He considers specifically how Romero s witness challenges Christians in the U.S. to reimagine a robust Christian spirituality that is at once a mystical encounter with God and a prophetic engagement in the struggle for justice.
