Broken Bodies and Redemptive Tables

The Stellenbosch Theological Reflection (STR) series offers well-grounded and creative theological research aimed at both the academy and the ecumenical church in South Africa and beyond. In Broken bodies and redemptive tables: The Lord's Supper and its theological, historical and sociopolitical dimensions, scholars explore various aspects of the Lord's Supper, especially in view of past and present realities in the South African context. This is done in order to discern how, amidst the complex realities of broken bodies, tables - the table of the Lord's Supper and our table fellowship - can and do function as redemptive spaces.
