For those seeking a deeper theological understanding

Reveals the connection between place and faith

You will gain insights into how geography shapes belief

Explore how place shapes our understanding of God and life.
"Place matters a great deal," Valentín argues. Touched by this Place casts attention to the multidimensional significance of place in our lives, focusing the reader's attention on how place contributes to how we think theologically about God, the world, and our lives as interrelated creatures. Paying attention to Spanish Harlem, where he grew up and lived for twenty-seven years, Valentín encourages readers to recognize how our thinking, theological and otherwise, influences the particular geographical places in which we live, move, and happen in the world. Place influences and is influenced by human thought, experience, memory, identity, and activity, and it is time for Christian theology to return to place and place-based thinking.
