  We learn who we are as we walk together in the way of Jesus. So I want to invite you on a pilgrimage. Rwanda is often held up as a model of evangelization in Africa. Yet in 1994, beginning on the Thursday of Easter week, Christians killed other Christians, often in the same churches where they had worshiped together. The most Christianized country in Africa became the site of its worst genocide. With a mother who was a Hutu and a father who was a Tutsi, author Emmanuel Katongole is uniquely qualified to point out that the tragedy in Rwanda is also a mirror reflecting the deep brokenness of the church in the West. Rwanda brings us to a cry of lament on our knees where together we learn that we must interrupt these patterns of brokenness But Rwanda also brings us to a place of hope. Indeed, the only hope for our world after Rwanda’s genocide is a new kind of Christian identity for the global body of Christ—a people on pilgrimage together, a mixed group, bearing witness to a new identity made possible by the Gospel.

  In the Shadow of Men

  Born in Jerusalem in the early 1970s and growing up there, the main character in this gripping novel felt all along that something was unsettling that came with being a female living in a society dominated by a patriarchal social order. But, it would take a broken marriage that ended in a bitter divorce experience for her to examine anew her early life experiences and understand them as outcomes largely shaped by male dominance, hence the excellent choice of title. Surely, male dominance is not projected as completely defining or foreclosing choices available to women. If it did, the main character would not have considered divorce, much less acted on it, as she eventually did. But, the patriarchy almost always shaped experiences and outcomes in ways that reflected the influence of the crippling power asymmetries women tended to be confronted with in male- dominated organizations and social structures.
  Harhash provides a brilliant account of a wide variety of forms of injustice endured by women living in men's shadow. The breadth of her knowledge, as well as her deep intellect, render that account at once striking and unsurprising. She does this very well, often seeking explanations deeply rooted in philosophical discourse on human behavior and the evolution of human thought throughout history. Nor did she fail to highlight, even if only in passing, the variety of ways in which living under an oppressive colonial occupation magnified the ill effects of the power asymmetries associated with the workings of the patriarchal social order.
