Free Spirit And Trauma: A Theology Of Remaining Ebooks Online
Rambo draws on contemporary studies in trauma to rethink a central claim of the Christian faith: that new life arises from death. Reexamining the narrative of the death and resurrection of Jesus from the middle day-liturgically named as Holy Saturday-she seeks a theology that addresses the experience of living in the aftermath of trauma. Through a reinterpretation of "remaining" in the Johannine Gospel, she proposes a new theology of the Spirit that challenges traditional conceptions of redemption. Offered, in its place, is a vision of the Spirit's witness from within the depths of human suffering to the persistence of divine love.

Rambo brings to light an obscure Catholic theologian with provocative thoughts on surviving trauma. She vaults over thoughts about navigating smoothly through any horrible events. My hesitation with her work was the progress of thought that felt, to me, like it left the trauma reflection and over-focused in the third-quarter on biblical/theological reflections. Never-the-less I would encourage pastors, counselors, and supporters of trauma victims to give this book some time...perhaps even investigating its references.
Rambo takes on the ineffable topics of God and trauma in this book and does an amazing job of presenting one way to theologically process trauma for your congregation. She lifs up the power of Easter Saturday as a holy and sacred day of witnessing the timeless-ness of trauma and redemption.
Came in great shape.
