| Summary: | This article displays an interactive approach of contextual Bible study by bringing the reader into the discussion between a Bible scholar and people at the grass roots, as mediated by a missionary in Honduras. Description of the rich dialogue about passages on the righteousness of God in Romans displays how all involved, Bible scholar, missionary, and church members, gained new insights as they wrestled with pastoral and theological challenges caused by Hurricane Mitch. The authors both model an approach of dialogical Bible study and list methodological insights for other missionaries engaging in contextual Bible study. |
