Activist Theology

When Dr. Robyn Henderson-Espinoza talks about activist theology they are clearly drawing from the core of liberation theology - where one's theology is lived out among the marginalized because God is always on the side of the oppressed. Henderson-Espinoza says activist theology is about bridging scholarship and activism. They also emphasize that activist theology is rooted in story, as it is story that changes hearts and minds.
