Description: Don't waste your time on this nonsense. Kyung writes as if the only important theology is post-1960 liberation theology. Such drivel is not unusual from a professor at Union Theological Seminary in NYC (anti-traditional, blah blah blah). But Kyung's work is shoddy scholarship at best. Makes a person wonder why James Cone was so eager to give it a good review...

Details: Professor Hyun Kyung Chung breaks new ground, with this vision of womens' spirituality which acknowleges our pluralist cultures. Insightful, original, authentic: a book in which spirit moves.
Review Summary: Great beginning for Asian feminist theology
Date: 2001-04-17
Details: I have read this book several times and always find new insight out of Chung Hyun Kyung's work. "Struggle to be the Sun Again" gives voice to Asian and Asian-American women who are academically and spiritually doing work in the theological field. I highly recommend this book if you are interested in exploring the theological challenges for Asian women in the church.
