This podcast episode dives into Clodovis Boff's "Theology and Praxis," a foundational work that doesn't just do liberation theology, but rigorously explores how theology can be truly theological—and not just ideology. We unpack Boff's epistemological project, examining his three key "mediations": how theology engages with the social sciences, interprets sacred scripture, and interacts with practical action. Discover why Boff insists theology must first understand its own method, critically utilize socio-analytic tools, and distinguish between theoretical and sociological loci. We'll explore his nuanced view of Marxism, the distinction between salvation and revelation, and the vital role of "orthopraxis" in shaping theological truth, revealing a dynamic interplay between thought and action in the pursuit of genuine theological understanding.This is a book review or commentary on an academic subject with content curated by Ivelisse Valentin-Vera and recorded with the power of NotebookLM to ensure every AI generated conversation is accurate, deep and accessible, and does not represent the opinion of the authors. www.ivelissevalentin.comDisclaimer: This episode features a book review or commentary on a particular subject recorded with AI.
