Virgilio Elizondo
In these writings, Elizondo reflects on the personal journey behind his theology; on Jesus, Mary and Guadalupe; on the problem of sin and suffering; and on the way of discipleship.
Gallilean Journey
The groundbreaking work in Hispanic theology, relates the story of the Galilean Jesus to the story of a new mestizo people.In this work, which marked the arrival of a new era of Hispanic/Latino theology in the United States, Virgilio Elizondo described the "Galilee principle": "What human beings reject, God chooses as his very own". This principle is well understood by Mexican-Americans, for whom mestizaje -- the mingling of ethnicity, race, and culture -- is a distinctive feature of their identity. In the person of Jesus, whose marginalized Galilean identity also marked him as a mestizo, the Mexican-American struggle for identity and new life becomes luminous.--Amazon.com.
A God of Incredible Surprises
In this remarkable rereading of the life of Jesus, theologian Virgilio Elizondo, cited by TIME Magazine as one our the spiritual innovators of out time, focuses on the humanity of Jesus and the healing his life offers to ourselves and our world today.
Way of the Cross
When Christopher Columbus arrived in the New World in 1492, there began a new way of the cross, traced for five hundred years in the lives of the poor and oppressed peoples of the Americas. These short meditations on the stations-by such figures as Gustavo Guiterrez, Enrique Dussel, Leonardo Boff, Helder Camara, Elsa Tamez, and Jon Sobrino-reflect on the passion of Christ against the background of conquest. They write, as Virgil Elizondo says in his preface, to "invite our readers to take this journey with us, to share our suffering, to experience our crucifixion, and to taste in anticipation our Easter joy. We invite all-rich and poor, black and brown and white, clerics and lay people-to a profound conversion that will stimulate us to build a better world in the Americas, a world of the new humanity enjoying justice, freedom, and love."

Charity
"Virgil Elizondo inspires us to practice a virtue that excludes no one and desires good for everyone. Filled with true stories of love in action, Charity is spiritual reading at its best." ""Charity," he writes, "is allowing the life of God to work through our ordinary, and sometimes extraordinary, deeds and words because God is love. What could be more beautiful?""--BOOK JACKET.
The Future is Mestizo
"Like the Chinese dicho, we are blessed to be living in interesting times, on the border of the new mestizaje. As one member of this exciting movimento nudging and being nudged into the future, I am delighted to have discovered this book. I have seen the new millennium and the future is us." -- Sandra Cisneros.

The book also offers helpful insights to liturgists, religious educators, priests, and others who promote the mutual enrichment between liturgy and non-Anglo expressions of faith.
